ext/soap: Windows handles query strings differently

If I'm right, that would also happen on other OSs if ext/soap is built as shared library.

Nope, has nothing to do with shared libs – Windows specific issue.

The problem is that SoapServer expects "wsdl" as query string to deliver the WSDL. However, if a query string doesn't contain an equals sign, command line options are ignored on Windows. So either hack-around by making SoapServer more deliberate:

or apply a proper fix for the tests, namely to spawn a php-cgi process with the command line options, and then send a CGI request and verify the response. Certainly possible, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.

ext/soap/soap.c の SoapServer::handle から始め、Windows CGI のクエリ文字列の挙動が "wsdl" リクエストにどのような影響を与えるかを確認してください。提案されている 1 ファイルでの処理変更を、issue で説明されている代替の CGI テストアプローチと比較してください。対象のクエリ文字列に対して Windows が WSDL を提供し、その挙動が適切なリグレッションテストでカバーされていれば完了です。
