PHP 5.3.6 and PHP 5.3.8 source code compatibility

Question

I got PHP 5.3.6 Installed in my computer , and I want to begin creating PHP extensions... so I've setup VC++ 2008 (since PHP 5.3.6 is compiled with vc++ 2008).

I need now to download PHP source code, and All I find is PHP 5.3.8 source code from php.net

My question is: is this version of the source code compatible with the version I've installed in my server?

In other words, can I start creating PHP extensions with the help of this source code, for my version of PHP?

Answer 1

The PHP developers promise backward-compatibility at least for micro-version updates (The z in x.y.z), thus there should be no problem.
