VC9 is - as I understand it - only required for IIS which is not on my

currently happening for PHP5.2? That is just and automatic build isn't it?
So why can't we simply have the VC6 build for PHP5.3?
The extension builds happily in PHP5.3 on Linux, is working there and
since THAT is not included in distributions we circulate our own copies
of it. So why should we not do the same thing with an Apache/Windows
build in much the same way that we circulate Windows UDF extensions for
Firebird.
