Hi!
Thanks for the quick answer!
> 2.6.26 built using the LIBXML_STATIC_FOR_DLL flag.
Ehm, ok. The problem is that it is not possible to define this flag in
any way but by hand-editing makefile. Which reinforces my point about
keeping working one in win32build zip.

This URL does not seem to be alive, anyway - what is this URL? It's not
standard libxml2 place - where one finds it out (except for asking on
the list each time one want to build PHP ;)

Please do not forget to update .dsp files then.

Does it mean older PHP versions won't build with newer libxml? Ouch.
Then I guess we need versioned files. Because right now building 5.2 on
windows is very non-obvious to say the least and there's no reason why
it should stay that way. Anyway, since older version did not have libxml
at all, I think it won't be too bad adding one,
