Description

I was testing on my Windows 10 dev machine with some different apache/php versions combination to be launched with a shortcut, for example:

apache 2.4.41 and php 7.4.2
apache 2.4.62 and php 8.4.1

with dirs:

c:/fbampp/php7/apache24 (apache 2.4.41)
c:/fbampp/php7/php (php 7)

c:/fbampp/php8/apache24 (apache 2.4.62)
c:/fbampp/php8/php (php 8)

While doing this my legacy path env to php dir broke, I forgot to update it, and I noticed that some extensions, not all, failed to load:

from Apache error log:

Apache server shutdown initiated...
 load dynamic library 'intl' (tried: c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext\\intl (Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.), c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext\\php_intl.dll (Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.)) in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'pdo_pgsql' (tried: c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext\\pdo_pgsql (Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.), c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext\\php_pdo_pgsql.dll (Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.)) in Unknown on line 0
PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'sodium' (tried: c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext\\sodium (Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.), c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext\\php_sodium.dll (Impossibile trovare il modulo specificato.)) in Unknown on line 0

c:/fbampp/php7/php/ is the actual php directory and c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext/ is full of dlls.

extension_dir = "c:/fbampp/php7/php/ext"

Adding to the env path c:/fbampp/php7/php/ fixes the issue, but I was wondering if this works as intended.
If so, it would be a lil more complicated to launch different webserver/php versions and update path accordingly with the currently selected php interpreter directory.
