You lost me here. The debug version of bindlib has been available in every 
version of PHP up until now.

The _debug postfix doesn't work with 5_2 because you haven't implemented 
support for it there (and probably shouldn't, since it will break existing 
setups). It's not a case of documentation, and I'm not sure how you think 
that would help matters given that the release version is explicitly being 
loaded during configure. Or did you intende for everyone building PHP_5_2 to 
manually alter the configure script? :)

Please, go back and check the 5_2 src and you'll see what I'm talking about. 
Bindlib is very broken for debug builds, and has been since we stopped using 
.dsp, but manipulating the library name isn't a sensible fix for it at this 
stage - not least because anyone who's noticed it in the past will have 
fixed it in a different way in their own environment, e.g. by setting the 
LIB path for bindlib_w32 in MSVS.
