The Buildfarm complains that Win32::Registry can't be found:

Can't locate Win32/Registry.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Win32::Registry module) (@INC entries checked: src/test/perl src/tools/msvc src/backend/catalog src/backend/utils/mb/Unicode src/bin/pg_rewind src/test/ssl/t src/tools/msvc/dummylib /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.38 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.38 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at ./src/tools/win32tzlist.pl line 21.

This could perhaps be related to this patch removing the module in
src/tools/msvc/dummylib/Win32/Registry.pm ?
