Ok, I think I've solved the issue with the windows verification script and
I have PR up for it.

It looks like this is for the case of using gnu linker + debug build and
the number of symbols. This does not happen in CI for our release builds
and does not happen on the msvc linker. I have a PR up for the verification
tool. I don't think this is a release blocker.
