VS 2022 version 17.9.1 has a bug preventing building cli_ure

[Oliver Brinzing]

I can confirm this issue with

Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2022 (64-Bit) - Current Version 17.10.3

LINK : error LNK2034: Die Metadaten sind nicht konsistent mit der COFF-Symboltabelle: Symbol
"?rtl_ustr_asciil_reverseEquals_WithLength@@$$J0YAEPEB_SPEBDJ at Z" (06000537) weist inkonsistente
Metadaten mit (0A0009DC) in climaker_emit.o auf.
