Okay, so I copied the Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows XP SP2\include\WinResrc.h to winres.h and that got the compile all the way to the linking point. But now it dies (so close!) with: Creating library Release_TS\php5ts.lib and object Release_TS\php5ts.exp resolv.lib(inet_addr.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __pctype referenced in function _inet_aton resolv.lib(inet_addr.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___mb_cur_max referenced in function _inet_aton Release_TS\php5ts.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 2 unresolved externals NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\ Vc7\bin\link.exe"' : return code '0x460' Reading http://www.zend.com/manual/install.windows.building.php suggests that to fix this problem I need to rebuild resolv.lib -- but using the bindlib.dsp file requires msdev, which requires a full MS Visual Studio environment. That's a showstopper for those of us trying to do this with just the free-beer tools available from Microsoft. However, it is apparently possible to export a DSP file as a Makefile from MS Visual Studio. If someone with a full MS Visual Studio environment would be willing to make that exported makefile available, I think it might help close this final loop and would be a worthwhile addition to the bindlib_w32.zip archive.
