bindlib_w32 and win32build

As far as I can tell, bindlib_w32 contains sources for resolv.lib. However, win32build.zip contains a precompiled version of resolv.lib and the necessary headers. The README.WIN32-BUILD-SYSTEM file states:
> You also need: > - bindlib_w32 [http://www.php.net/extra/bindlib_w32.zip] > - win32build [http://www.php.net/extra/win32build.zip]
If win32build.zip already contains a precompiled version (as well as headers), why is bindlib_w32.zip necessary? If it is not, I am going to remove (or at least move) those directions in the PHP documentation to later on, for users interested in compiling all of PHP's constituent libraries. thanks.
