Ldc ImportC preprocessor failure (wrong option syntax) on Windows

Hi,
On my personal machine everything works fine, but our CI build
machine suffers from this error:
```
clang-cl.exe: warning: unknown argument ignored in clang-cl
'-target' (did you mean '--target='?) [-Wunknown-argument]
clang-cl.exe: error: no such file or directory:
'x86_64-pc-windows-msvc'
```
I have the impression that options are given as the Microsoft
preprocessor expects them, but that the clang preprocessor is
called instead. I think that on my personal machine the Microsoft
preprocessor is called, which is also what I would expect, but I
don't know of a way to verify that; the workings of ImportC are
rather opaque.
My hunch is that LDC doesn't detect the presence of the Microsoft
toolchain correctly. I do call `vcvarsall.bat x64` prior to
invoking ldc. Could there be a global configuration in effect on
my personal machine, but not on the CI build machine? One
difference is that, although we currently install compilers by
unzipping archives and adding to PATH, on my personal machine I
have used the Windows Installer in the past, which may have done
additional things to configure my system.
Any help is appreciated!
