I'm actually using the 32 bit compiler:

Microsoft (R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 16.00.40219.01 for 80x86


I didn't even involve visual studio, all I'm doing is calling the 32 bit 
MSVC compiler directly from the command line (See the github issue to be 
able to reproduce).  I was very surprised I couldn't even get through the 
"A first Tupfile" example without encountering a bug in tup.  The 
executable even gets built, it just says there's an error "saving 
dependencies".  I'd be very surprised if I'm the first one who has 
encountered this, but I didn't see any issues describing what happened to 
me.  Does this happen to anyone else?  (See the github issue to reproduce).
