It seems that since c489a767af46f33e73d96a5746e46a7365814db2 the AMD64 Windows10 buildbot for Python3.6 fails to compile. Error log:

If it's a problem with a Windows build, you should add the Windows component so the Windows team is nosied.  But, in this case, I think Steve has already fixed this.

Could http://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/90/builds/350 be related to this?

It seems like a regression of bpo-33614.
