Assigning to you Anatol: Could you take a quick look at this please ?

Apologies, I left out a piece of information, and this may be an untamed ornithoid pursuit. Failure to load php.ini file occurs when

> set PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN=1
> php-cgi.exe -b address:port -c conf\php.ini

is run.  Not setting the PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN environment variable in the start-up script leads to loading of the php.ini file as expected.
