Here is how I compile php 5.x under cygwin.

I have these cygwin modules (may be you do not need all, just I do not 
know which you need) -

bison, bzip2, cvs, flex, gcc, gd, grep, keychain, libtool1.5, libxml, 
libxml2, libxml2-devel, make, openssh, perl, readline, rsync, 
subversion, unzip, vim, whois, zip

Get Apache 1.3.34 sources and php 5.1.1 sources.

Go into Apache sources directory and do

./configure

Go into php sources directory and do

./configure --with-apache=PATH_TO_APACHE_SOURCES --without-pear

(--without-pear is needed - otherwise does not work)

make
make install

make install will suggest that you add /usr/local/lib/php to your 
php.ini include_path.

Copy the php.ini into /usr/local/lib/php.ini and edit if needed.

Go back to the Apache sources directory.

./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php5/libphp5.a

make
make install

You might need to do

mv /usr/local/apache/libexec/libhttpd.dll /usr/local/apache/bin

With this you will have php cli, I believe, so you can execute scripts 
with cron.
