The first problem I have found is that the APC extension (the first I
tested) has no config.w32 file included in the distribution, even
though one is present in CVS (and has been for quite a while afaict).
This prevents a successful build of the extensions under windows
(note: I only tested the php 5 build scripts).
Is this situation common in pecl packages? Is there any (easy)
workaround other than "if the file is not in the distribution, try
getting it from cvs"?
In reply to my own post: the second package I tested with is runkit.
Unfortunately, version 0.9 (the last available on pecl.php.net) does not
compile with php 5.2.3+ because of a change in
zend_unmangle_property_name. This has been fixed in cvs
(runkit_import.c, on date 26/10/06), but not in any official release.
I am starting to think my approach is fundamentally flawed, if most
extensions will only build on windows when pulled from cvs there is no
usage in trying to compile older releases (and without having even taken
into account the double-life of packages living in both pecl and core)...
