There is no official binaries for apache, please understand once and
for all and get over it. Apachelounge are well trusted builds using a
modern compilers and the offical Apache sources.

Win32 Binary IS one of the few binaries Apache supply!!! Some government sites will ONLY allow that version to be installed :( PHP5.2 installs have then been approved for use with the official apache install, so are you saying we need to go back to even earlier builds of PHP5.2 to work with this?

And that's still true. But that has nothing to do with Apache or PHP
being not stable but CRT compatibilities. In any case, if you find any
bug, please report them at bugs.php.net, but that's totally unrelated
to this thread.

See point above ... with the current windows situation on windows.php.net, PHP5.2.17 is the last version of php available to go with the official windows binaries from Apache? TESTING PHP5.3 on an official apache build and reporting bugs is not the problem here, since users are told not to use them at all.

Since official apache builds have always worked stably for years with an 'official' build of PHP people simply expect that to continue!
