Hmm, this is a toughy.  I seem to remember some things coming up surrounding
this, either on PHP-DEV or as a bug somewhere.

http://www.zend.com/zend/week/week114.php#Heading6

and http://bugs.php.net/search.php searching for ISAPI in all bugs.

I'd try 4.3RC3 (http://qa.php.net/) which has just been released, and is
probably pretty stable.  I've been playing with 4.4 from CVS and even that's
stable (although I have no idea as for Windows).
