Sounds good. About the _zend_do_inheritance stuff. Hans used that
function because it save us a huge amount of trouble. The problem is
that it isn't exported in the win32 version. Only from php5.1 on, on
linux it isn't marked as a part of the zend api but it isn't marked
static either.
We realy don't know what to do about it, because without it we only have
two options:

* don't support eA with php 4 on windows
* provide a patch for php and compile it again for windows

A third option would be to hack around it but that would require a lot
of work. Hans has been looking into this. Maybe we should move this
stuff to the developers mailing list. I've cc'ed that list. This way
Hans can jump in too.

I don't have that much time at the moment and in a few days I'll
disapear again for a more then a month, my exams are comming up :(.
