23rd August would be PHP 5.1.6. It sounds like that 5_2 relative include bug's hurting you (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=41193). Does that make sense - do you use __autoload() or MVC alongside relative paths? (If so would you care to add your voice to that report?) That means 5.1.6 is actually the last version we can be 100% confident about for win98 users. The bug's not fixed in 5.2.3 and YMMV with PHP CLI after 5.2.1 anyway. Unfortunately the 5.1.6 binary is also missing from the vaults: http://devzone.zend.com/article/2163-Zend-Weekly-Summaries-Issue-340#Heading6 although the source is available there. Not sure what to advise you at this point :-(

I can roll a new win95/98 non-zts 5.1.6 and build php-gtk2 against it - I'm building php specially for php-gtk2 anyway because we need a static gd until someone figures out how to get it loading right so gdkpixbuf::new_from_gd works with shared gd man that path bug is nasty, adding absolute paths does make a difference, I just compared the demo against my own code that uses absolute paths - ouch... (must blog about that sometime...) Caveat - you'll have to tell me the extensions you need since you can't get it in the vault, including any pecl ones (that still build against 5.1.6 and aren't available on pecl4win)
