For many of the libs for extensions I am also dependent on
https://windows.php.net/downloads/php-sdk/deps/
Some of them I am also building them my self, using (sometimes patched)

Apachelounge is not my official website. I am just a 'member' that make
his builds available on https://www.apachelounge.com/viewforum.php?f=6
