There is no official binaries for apache, please understand once and
for all and get over it. Apachelounge are well trusted builds using a
modern compilers and the offical Apache sources.

And that's still true. But that has nothing to do with Apache or PHP
being not stable but CRT compatibilities. In any case, if you find any
bug, please report them at bugs.php.net, but that's totally unrelated
to this thread.
