As promised, here are the 64 bit builds of PHP 5.3.6 for Windows. PHP 5.3.6 was released about 12 days ago (17 March 2011) and includes a number of security and bug fixes (Changelog). Wanted to post this earlier but didn’t have the time to compile and test it.
Anyway, I noticed that the mcrypt extension is now a static extension and so there will be no php_mcrypt.dll file. If you copy over your old php.ini file, be sure to comment out the “extension=php_mcrypt.dll” line (in case you were using this extension and had that line uncommented).
