Success!
Leaving VS2026 alone, I un- and re-installed DMD.
I can confirm that I am able to compile and run C programs from
the normal Windows command prompt (as well as the sluggish
'Developer Powershell').
I do feel that consideration should be given to somehow arranging
that, for a Windows installation, a mechanism should be provided
such that DMD's ImportC option works _without_ having to download
VS (perhaps by incorporating an existing open source
preprocessor). The gross bloat and complexity of VS is not DMD's
fault, but it should not be encouraged.
