Ah, that makes sense; the only Apache MPM supported on Windows is
mpm_winnt, which is thread-based:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mpm_winnt.html

Again, this only makes sense if using server modules (mod_php); anyone
using FastCGI will presumably be unaffected.


All that being said, it would be nice if ZTS became more mainstream, so
more people had access to userland threading / parallel processing
extensions.
