You're right, I had Inno Setup running in the background, probably
locking the ISCmplr.dll. But even after closing Inno Setup and making
sure ISCmplr.dll is not locked anymore, the above cherry-pick fails.

However, if I pass --strategy=resolve, it works with 1.7.5. But as you
already mentioned, I'd not expect the cherry-pick to touch ISCmplr.dll
in any case ... no what does that tell me, is it a regression in
1.7.5, or a new "feature"?
