Duplicate bugs are given the bogus status and typically link to the
parent bug. Looks like that happened a few times here, but the bug
evolved and was prematurely closed. It's open now. Windows geeks,
please look into bug #46021 and close it. If it's not closed by Friday
(when the manual builds) I'll address [hack] it the best I can.

I can see why some people were against us having a wiki because these
'where is what when how?' problems become more frequent. But as for
the Windows build stuff, I consider the manual to be documentation and
the wiki entry a supplemental to it.

And as for the Windows PECL binaries, this large task could use more
bodies so people feel free to help. Pierre, please post an update/todo
regarding this task so we all know about it and how to help.

Regards,
Philip

Unfortunately months later I am back at the same problem I reported
months ago and the same wiki 'stepbystep' page is incomplete :(

There is an article in the May 2009 edition of php|Architect magazine
[1] which I've successfully used to build PHP. It covers installing
VC9 (I used the Express Edition) and the 6.1SDK.

It was REALLY REALLY simple to follow. None of the "copy this file to
there", "edit this and that" stuff. The new build process works very
well (my opinion based upon the limited use I've made of it so far).

You may recognize one of the co-authors!

Richard Quadling.
