Description
### Steps to reproduce
- Create a Windows Server Core Docker image with VS Build Tools 15.7 (lower should have the same issue).
- Start a container with a folder from the host mounted as a volume inside the container.
- Put a VS solution with C++ projects inside the volume, it should have PDB format (not C7 compatible).
- Build the solution.
### Expected behavior
Build succeeds
### Actual behavior
Build fails with "cannot open program database".
You can now see that mspdbsrv still has a lock on PDB file(s).
When the solution is copied to inside the container (so it's not in a mounted volume anymore) and then built the same way it works correctly.
### Environment data
`msbuild /15.7` output:
```
c:\externalvolume\component-vshaper\vshaperlib\stdafx.cpp(9): error C2471: cann
