You shouldn't need to start the mozilla-build shell from within a VS
shell. Our build uses vswhere and the registry to find the necessary
pieces. That might be where things are going awry.
From looking at your output, you might want to check this path:
"/c/apps/MVS15/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.10.25017 /", which appears to have a
trailing space in our build output. That comes from
${VCINSTALLDIR}/Auxiliary/Build/Microsoft.VCToolsVersion.default.txt so
maybe our script is failing to prune out a trailing space or an extra empty
line from that file. If that file has been modified manually, or we have
an errant carriage return or something like that, then we might need to
make some changes to ensure that we don't catch that. (We use 'cat', but
we could use 'head -1' instead.)
If that fails, then you help by sharing the output of:
(export target_arch=x64; bash -x /coreconf/msvc.sh)
There will be a lot of paths listed. You could help by seeing which of
those, if any, don't exist. Most should. It's possible however that the
script is failing to find something important.
