The container recipe carried a PowerShell backtick continuation in a snippet
whose next paragraph invites a POSIX shell to run it, where a backtick is not a
continuation. A continuation has to pick a shell, so the line does not have one.
The Dockerfile's own copy of the recipe still mounted one machine's checkout by
absolute path; it mounts whatever checkout is running it, like the other two.
And the requirement a newcomer meets by tripping over it: on win32-x64 the
harness needs the checkout somewhere short. MSBuild's file tracker gives out on
long paths, so a run from a deep temporary directory fails the build for every
mutant, the no-op control included. That is loud — the harness stops on a red
control and prints what the child said — but what the child says is MSBuild, not
the path.
