Downloaded the 5.2 zip and modified the php.ini for our requirements 
(mysql, etc).  Added libraries from the latest nts file. 

Won't work at all on our Win2k servers.  Freeaddrinfo error, probably 
followed by Getaddrinfo errors, but we can't make it that far.  That's a 
deal-breaker for us. 

Went ahead and tried it out on my WinXP PC.  Got into our app, but found 
most of the  graphics don't really work.  Entry fields don't display 
cursor or entered data, multi-tab screen labels don't display at all, 
button accelerators are not valid.... etc.

Our most recent Ubuntu compile works just fine with existing code.

Obviously missed something important.  Not sure what.

thanks,
Madeleine D.
