thanks for your help testing PHP7.

that's not true. Any PECL extensions being released and Windows supported
do fetch their deps from

http://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/deps/

Also I hardly beleave any of 44 extensions building with PHP7 would be
fully worky (well, maybe except http which was recently ported).

Regarding the builds point - there are builds being done on almost every
commit available here for master
http://windows.php.net/downloads/snaps/master/ as well as for the other
branches of interest.

Thanks.
