I'm getting the same error when I'm running through MSYS2 (with MSYSTEM=CLANG64 and MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict), but it's working in PowerShell. I'm on Windows Server 2019 version 1809, PowerShell version 5.1.17763.2090.

Looks like this is a Node version (or build configuration) issue. If I use my system Node.JS (v19.8.1) instead of the MSYS Node.JS (v18.15.0) it works fine.

Hey @lesderid! Do you mean you were using your system's Node.JS by somehow rewiring MSYS to use it?
