Research direction

Start with the linked doctest issue and reproduce the build on windows-latest, focusing on the strip.exe permission failure. Trace the setup workflow's handling of that executable and compare successful and failing runs. Done means the source of the flakiness is identified and the permission problem is fixed.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As reported on the doctest issue page, on windows-latest there's some flakiness concerning the strip.exe permissions when building doctest.

Not sure how or why it happens, but would be nice if the source of this could be found/fixed.
