The problem is that the order of CLI args processing is borked.
The first getopt() (in main()) processes only some of the args,
then SAPI and modules are started up; only afterwards the second
getopt() block (in do_cli()) processes further args (-z plus some
others), and the extension is loaded, but never initialized.
Given that -z is useless, and -dzend_extension= works as expected,
it might be best to just drop the -z arg.

Also happens in other operating systems ...
The reason -m doesn't show it's loaded is clear, they are different getopt blocks.
But even when you run a script with get_loaded_extensions dump, the zend extension is not loaded
(tested with opcache which registers a module, the module is not registered).

Description:
------------
Using the -z/--zend_extension option to load a zend extension when using php from the CLI
doesn't seem to work on Windows. I tested using PHP versions 5.6.40, 7.2.16, and 7.3.3.
In my particular case, I was trying to load xdebug.
php -z <path to xdebug> -m
The above results in no modules listed under [Zend Modules]
php -z <path to xdebug> --re xdebug
php -z <path to xdebug> --rz xdebug
php -z <path to xdebug> --ri xdebug
The above all result in an error stating that xdebug does not exist.
php -d zend_extension=<path to xdebug>
The above can be used as a workaround as it loads the extension as expected.
Please let me know if I can provide any additional information.
