Hi Edwin, thanks for finding this! I was trying to compile with Windows and wondering what was going on!

I just have a couple of comments, I think things might have got messed up by clang format. Thanks

Would be good to land this, I got stuck on it for a couple hours.

Looks good to me! Go ahead and merge it
