This issue is not consistent, I was able to reproduce once on x64 by
running commands in a loop overnight, but the next time I tried to
reproduce I ran for over 24 hours without hitting it.
It does seem to happen much more often on Windows on ARM64 (so much so
that at first I thought it was an issue with their emulation). With this
patch I have not seen the issue again.
Also, it seems to have started cropping up in msys2's CI when the GHA
runner was switched from "windows-2019" to "windows-2022".
I forgot to give a full link to the MSYS2 issue where I have been
investigating this:
