FreeTDS 0.8.2 & PHP 5.2.6 won't compile php extension

Hello All

Sorry if this isn't quite the place for this but searching the
documentation gleans no answers and Google has failed me also.

I am struggling to compile freetds 0.82 as a php extension on windows
(vista business).
I can compile PHP 5.2.6 on its own without any problems using the
recommended 'nmake' method.
FreeTDS appears to compile OK using the win32\msvc6\FreeTDS.dsw project
within VS 2005, creating the 'db', 'odbc', and 'tds' _Release folders
with the compiled code.

Now when I add the '--with-dblib=shared' option to the php config
command everything seems ok, so i run nmake and then get rather a lot of
unresolved external symbol errors (see end of message)

So my question is really does anyone know at which stage this is
failing? Is it an issue with my build of FreeTDS or is it an issue with
FreeTDS + PHP somehow. And has anyone successfully built freetds 0.8.2
with php as the dblib/mssql extension on windows?

Any advice gratefully received
Many Thanks,
Alastair Hole
