I wouldn't be opposed to that, in the sense that it's supposed to be a
black box to the caller, and it's relatively small in size. But I think
we're pretty close to having something usable without that, so I'd like
to pursue a smaller fix in the interim.

So here's what I came up with. Most of the changes are done as
preparatory steps, so I believe the final commit should just work out of
the box for you, as well as on Windows CI (which I just kicked off).

Indeed: This series passes the test suite for me on Windows 11.
