[avdv]

What version of protobuf and what language are you using?
Version: 26.1
Language: C++

What operating system (Linux, Windows, ...) and version?

Windows Server 2022 10.0.20348

What runtime / compiler are you using (e.g., python version or gcc version)

clang version 14.0.6
Target: x86_64-w64-windows-gnu
Thread model: posix

What did you do?
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

I am using Bazel (version 6.5.0) either using a workspace file or using a module (module version 26.0.bcr.1) and trying to build @com_google_protobuf//:protoc or @protobuf~26.0.bcr.1//:protoc respectively.

What did you expect to see

The build should succeed.

What did you see instead?
