Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Just a gentle reminder to stop bundling d3dcompiler_47.dll (~4MB, FWIW,
 #26204) and also try "Wine D3DCompiler" for #25837 (fxc2 doesn't use it,
 but uses "Wine UCRT" and "produces similar (but not exactly the same)
 output as fxc" which is a good point for fingerprinting investigation and
 Wine vs. MS comparison). There should be a ticket for switching to pure
 open-source toolchain, right? (And for upstreaming fxc2 to Wine or
 MinGW-w64?)
