Re: Re: PHP 5.6 Process

I have been running master and 5_5 PHPT tests against master snapshot builds on all versions of Windows. I have run the 5.5.6RC1 test-pack against snapshot builds of master-ra0244a6 (x86, x64, ts and nts) and found no functional regressions (no additional failures, timeouts or crashes) from php 5.5.6rc1, including the x64 builds.

We build the same extensions for 5.5 and master on Windows, so the test coverage is the same. Forking master to 5.6 doesn't seem to be a problem on Windows at least(no BC issues, etc...).
