`__imp_gdImageCreate` means the linker looks for `gdImageCreate()` declared with `__declspec(dllimport)` which would not make sense for static libgd. To fix this, you need to define `BGDWIN32` and `NONDLL`, e.g. via...

Oh, indeed you can do `rand(10, 1)` etc. @TimWolla, is this deliberate?

Thanks for the clarification @TimWolla! (I've only had looked at `rand()` and `php_mt_rand_common()`.) I think documenting `rand()` as alias of `mt_rand()` makes sense; we should document the few differences, though....

> timelib version != timezonedb version Oops, mixed that up. So https://3v4l.org/ALC7C is intentional? This should probably be documented in the manual then; while we usually don't document bug fixes,...

I'm not sure about the best course of action. Just removing the `onload()` call here, doesn't solve the problem that `$onload` needs to be deprecated. The only usages of `$onload`...
