Oh, I see; the question is an intelligence test and I failed. I got it now.

The first email address is your address; the second address is the one
you should write an email to, after you have registered:

I assume that to make the changes I must register as a wiki user. I
tried registering and it says my answer is not what was expected. I
don't see a captcha or anything like that. If the two email addresses
are supposed to be different then I don't know what the first one
should be.

Bonus points for actually editing that wiki page with whatever info
you find on this question, as you travel down this path Sam ;)

I am using Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2015 Community. I am trying to
build PHP using:
Build your own PHP on Windows
https://wiki.php.net/internals/windows/stepbystepbuild
Step 6 of "Setup the build directory" (summarized) says:
"Extract the PHP source code to |C:\php-sdk\phpdev\*vc##*\*x##*|"
....
"For example: C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php-5.6.4-src"
The pattern |C:\php-sdk\phpdev\*vc##*\*x##*| omits the lowest-level
"php-5.6.4-src". Are there any requiremnens for what must be used for
that sub-directory name? I assume not.
I can understand it is a good suggestion to provide the PHP version in
the name, especially if multiple versions are being maintained in a
system. Do the build scripts require it? I assume we can use whatever
seems appropriate for us instead of "php-5.6.4-src".
