windows binary dist lack vcdll, and `hello world` not work

please support win32 instead of win64 only

debug.zig:184:55: error: expected type 'builtin.AtomicRmwOp', found 'builtin.AtomicRmwOp'

win32 was initially supported, but support dropped to tier 2 because of a lack of ci and other errors in the stdlib iirc.

I would be happy to help you figure out your error, but I need more details. Feel free to provide more details and I will re-open this issue.

I'm trying out zig 0.4.0 on 64-bit linux (artix, package details here), and am getting the same error.

$ zig init-exe
Created build.zig
Created src/main.zig

Next, try `zig build --help` or `zig build run`
$ zig build

I have tried deleting ~/.local/share/zig in case it contains something from previous versions, but error persists. Please advise.

It looks like a bug in the path canonicalization. /home/<username>// (extra slash) vs /home/<username>/. Fixed in 1d95fda.
