https://windows.php.net/ currently recommends using an NTS build with
FastCGI, but there is (or was?) also an ISAPI module, i.e. the IIS
equivalent of Apache mod_php.

I think that requires / required ZTS, so that may be where the perception
of "thread-safety is important for Windows users" comes from.
