If it gets expanded on MSVC probably. But don't let it stop you from
applying this series. You can just expand it empty if you want.

Until the atomics series is merged msvc still won't build so I'll supply
minor fixes as these things pop up.

Once everything is staged I'll work with UNH to get a basic build CI
going to reduce the overhead of worrying about this kind of change being
breaking.
