> There is some versioning of it I think - as it's shipped as part of Windows and/or the Windows SDK, it does have version numbers matching the Windows builds, like e.g. `10.0.19041.0`. However the version number is seldom shown/used very visibly in UCRT contexts.

(We also do have detection of some known UCRT bugs which is used to make the tests "pass" - so older versions might be considered passing to the same extent if we'd add similar detection for their issues.)
I see that cmake reports

-- The C compiler identification is MSVC 19.29.30141.0
-- The CXX compiler identification is MSVC 19.29.30141.0
-- The ASM compiler identification is MSVC
-- Found assembler: C:/BuildTools/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.29.30133/bin/Hostx64/x64/cl.exe

is that what you are looking for?
