Sometimes it is easier to simply do it like other do (or the snaps,
etc.). It avoids confusions and having less troubleshooting sessions
is a good thing (tm).

No, that's not what the phpsdk_setvars does. It adds the phpsdk to the
PATH as well as a couple of other environment variables used by
various scripts. It does nothing about the PSDK or the VC path. Those
are still done using one of the following solution:

- If you use the SDK 6.1 (at some point), then the setenv script is used.
- Development console for VC6+PSDK 2003/02 (be sure to have the SDK
first in your paths, include and lib)
- Using something like what we do for the snaps and the conf.bat
configuration script
