Unfortunately msbuild\pipelink.exe has been flagged as infected by a
recent update to the MS Defender database, see also
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20325

Here's a digitally signed version of the file:
https://gist.github.com/rainers/6cdf73b48837defb9f88/raw/72489c399e1c0e889a13e6efb1015957e65a5405/pipelink.exe
that passes all but one AV program on VirusTotal.
