The binary distribution does not declare to set the system path to %PATH%;C:\php\dlls.
Without this setting, the extension(s) that need a library from this directory (eg. php_ldap.dll needs libsasl.dll) can not be loaded.

In addition, the value for extensions_dir in the installation instructions should be changed to C:/php/extensions in the php.ini file.

Of course external libraries, such as libsasl.dll, have to be in the path, but the user / administrator is responsible for that.

There is no sense in changing extensions_dir to C:/php/extensions in the CVS version of the php.ini, one reason is that not everyone has PHP installed to c:\php\ on the Windows platform.

this is clear. 
but what I was talking about is to explain to set the path properly for using the extensions - I was fideling around for one hour not knowing how a dll works (no win-developer).
This just needs a paragraph in the install-docs.

BTW:
C:/php is the example path already mentioned in the installation instructions.
