I'm not proposing to do that, besides, if you built locally for
different architectures running the tests would just fail, wouldn't it?

I think it's a better idea to target the common case of a user building
& being able to run the tests form t/, rather than requiring
bootstrapping that process by running "ctest".

Did you test that case on v2.38.0 and/or master? I.e. is VS running that
ctest portion automatically?
