Partial The build pipeline reuses PHP's official Windows builder, which is mechanical. The hard part is backporting security fixes to end-of-life PHP versions, which requires C and PHP internals expertise that vibe coding alone won't reliably supply.
What it would actually take: A real version needs to identify upstream security commits and backport them to EOL branches, then rebuild and test the Windows binaries. This requires C/PHP engine knowledge and security-review expertise, plus a Windows build environment and regression testing.
