[issue38088] distutils cannot locate vcruntime140.dll with only VS 2019 installed

Tue Sep 10 09:03:38 EDT 2019

New submission from Steve Dower <steve.dower at python.org>:

Because we are only looking for the VC141 redistributable, if we only have VC142 available then we won't find it.

We should expand the glob() call to allow VC14?\vcruntime140.dll.
