On the what-kind-of-pyrex question, I've been using my modern genuine Pyrex brand dish (which looks to be borosilicate) as a soldering tub for a couple of years with no problems. I don't think it's an issue for that use. Tech data I found says that Pyrex will generally tolerate a sudden thermal shock of 120C, and that the main issue discussed is sudden immersion in or addition of a liquid of very different temperature. A typical electronics size soldering iron doesn't put out remotely enough heat to be a problem. I've also used my hot air tool for rework in the dish with no trouble. Air cannot conduct heat into the glass anywhere near as fast a liquid. Overall I think you'd have to be pretty creative to shatter your dish while soldering.
Sadly I cannot guarantee your results if you use a dish that is not showing a real Pyrex trademark, drop a stainless steel bar into it, or allow your toddler to bash slugs with it.
Oh yeah, I totally second what OtT said about cleaning all flux, even the "no-clean" types. If you don't cook off all the flux in a reflow operation, the residue can become conductive and mess with your life.
One more goodie, a nice video from Sparkfun specifically about soldering those castellated RF modules.
