Subject: Re: PHP on NT (was Re: [mSQL] mSQL on the NT?)

I downloadd gcc win32 (http://www.cygnus.com/misc/gnu-win32/) and am
playing around with compiling php for win95 with it, but so far no
success, but I am also by no means a great c programer. It
seems this package should make porting to win32 much easier.
Perhapes someone else might also look into it also, or has and has
some comment on it? It would be nice to ultimatly have msql2 and php
working together on win95/nt.
