Service Pack 6 is the one to have installed. It is the one we used for
building the official releases.

with Service Pack 1.

Edin's zip is not used anymore since months. We do not recommend to
use it even if you figure out a way to get it again as we have no idea
how the libraries have been built, from where, etc. Everything we use
is available on pecl2 (or from the vendors for the proprietary
libraries). I would like to do not even mention it anywhere again,
that will definitively help us to explain how to do it correctly.
