Historical reasons but tons of headers are missing and are not being
installed by nmake install.

The 'not in a near future' means not with 5.3, or not in the next months.

You don't have to build PHP everytime, do it once, then you only
(re)build your extension. To build it as shared and as long as you
defined the config.w32 correctly, all you have to do is
'--enable-myext=shared' at configure time.
