Interesting… I wonder if this is the reason I need to restart Windows if I save files in my project directories during a Podman-based (via WSL) compile, which causes a hang that I've—until now—blamed on Podman.

This is a pre-release but it can be installed using `wsl --update --pre-release`

I've had to run file system checks on all of my WSL instances because they somehow end up read only with errors on them. I just thought it was connected to the fact that I'm in the canary windows 11 insider updates...
