Description
Hi,
I just noticed that lately and this seems to be happening since we moved to *Rez 2.16.0* last year but invoking the *Visual Studio Build Tools* prompt (2015 or 2017) is currently busted.
I noticed it because I did not have *cl* and *dumpbin* when invoking the prompt. Before when issuing:
```
rez-env vs_buildtools -- vcvars64
```
I was put in the *Visual Studio Build Tools 2017* prompt and had access to *cl*, etc... Now I actually need to do it staged:
```
rez-env vs_buildtools
```
Waiting for CMD prompt and then:
```
vcvars64
```
To properly spawn the *Visual Studio Build Tools 2017* prompt.
I'm not exactly sure what is the issue, probably usual Windows pain but I wanted to flag it.
Cheers,
Thomas
