Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by running the reproduction case linked in the issue, windows-assembler, with the reported Bazel 0.28.0 toolchain. Trace where the Windows assembler command is assembled and compare the flags passed to MASM; done means the invalid options shown in the warning output are no longer passed during the build.
