Man, getting windows to work was NOT easy

This change broke FreeBSD buildbot:

I wrote #132945 to fix the build on FreeBSD.

Seems like this change broke JIT CI on main for Windows #132953

How? This should not affect the JIT in any way

All look like that

Yeah I'm confused as well. See what Steve said above about the tests failing though. I wonder if the JIT build lays out stuff differently in memory? No clue.

No, that looks like whatever the JIT build is doing is breaking this feature, which is different. This PR makes that test run on windows and is failing, ergo is not that this broke the JIT but the other way around.

I am looking into it

Yeah I believe the JIT broke the test internal inspection, but the JIT CI was passing before this, so if I'm being pedantic, the PR did add tests that broke the JIT CI :).

Pedantics aside, @chris-eibl is looking into it, and I'm looking too.

Hold on I am looking into this I think I know what's going on

But JIT must do something different on Windows, because Linux is green?

Windows is also green in the normal CI. My bet is that it has to be with release/vs not release and not related to the JIT

I think you're right. On the commit, Azure pipelines (which uses release builds for Windows) fails, but not the normal debug builds.

Can confirm on a local Windows release 64bit build, that the tests fail:

I know what the problem is, I am working on a fix

As a takeaway: it would be good to get at least one release CI run on all PRs :)
