FWIW, we have a buildfarm animal called drongo that runs with VS 2019,
that uses Python, and that is now happy. One of my own machines uses
VS 2019 as well and I have yet to see what you are describing here.
Perhaps that's related to a difference in the version of perl you are
using and the version of that any others?
