Am seeing the following error when building with Clang 17.0.2 on Windows using MSVC 14.3. AFAICT this is a similar issue as occurred with MinGW ( https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/64464 ), but this is with MSVC. More background in the OP of PR ( https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/67891 ) (though that doesn't fix the MSVC target issue)
```
