Description

It seems that the [Link Removed] UBT creates to ensure any child processes are terminated on close is somehow affecting the mspdbsrv process that cl is spawning and terminating it when cl is finished, and is causing PDB API errors. Seems to be intermittent.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. In taskmanager, ensure no mspdbsrv.exe processes are running. If any are terminate them
  2. In a .target.cs, set bUsePDBFiles=true
  3. Build the target
  4. Many errors such as the following will appear
D:\UE5\Engine\Source\Runtime\CoreUObject\Public\UObject\UnrealType.h(6646): fatal error C1090: PDB API call failed, error code '23': (0x000006BA)
