I still need to take a look into the free tools (I think they don't
work for PHP 4)

No it's too vague, at least for me ;-)

So, what is whatever? What do I need to build *php5*? Commercial vc6,
Vc7, or is there a possibility to build with a free one, and if so what
tools/free sdk's are required?

Another quote from the online version:
"To compile and build PHP you need a Microsoft Development Environment.
Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 is recommended, although .NET versions will
also work."
Is vc6 sufficient to build php5 with the new build system?

Don't get me wrong, but I think this sort of questions should be clear
from the requirements section. 
Answers for this questions are not covered by the current requirement
section.
Thanks

enough??
you only need a windows system :) and Visual Studio (6 or .Net), either
a free (sdk, whatever) or a commercial version.

Nuno, thanks for putting that together.
It would be helpful, to have a section about requirements which answers
the question: "What tools/software/updates/ etc. do I need to build php5
with the new build system?"
I remember, Wez has posted requirements some time ago to internals.
A requirements section would be definitly helpful.
