These simply dont work:
Thread - crashes on shutdown
iisfunc - crashes on shutdown
SAM - tries to load a file via include during RINIT

I enabled all extensions minus those three and my installation still
works, those would be the priority.

The following are only avilable in CVS and have never had a stable release:
ixsfunc
php_win32scheduler
php_win32service

There are no doubt more that could be removed but moving the PECL
extensions into a separate tree in the installer with a stable and
unstable branch may be an idea. Or remove the ones in beta completely.
