The wiki had a bit of an issue and had to be recovered. Some of the
data may be out of date.

For Windows, VC9 with SDK 6.1 is used to build PHP.

Our builds are production ready. Why do you want to build them again
on your own?

5.2 does not support VC9 and we won't change anything to make it work
with VC9. PHP 5.2 is also not supported anymore.

Use our builds for both 5.2 and 5.3 would be much easier for you, as
well as using only 5.3. But I suppose the later is not option for you.

Hey Andres,

How about using FastCGI  with IIS for 5.2.X per this guide.
http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/246/using-fastcgi-to-host-php-applications-on-iis-7/

That being said you should consider upgrading to 5.3x as Pierre suggests
