Just to keep this list in the loop, in case someone else stumbles
upon this, Stefan of Tortoise fame has confirmed your suspicion:
There is a bug in the (at this time) latest Windows SDK, version
10.0.17134.0, that causes the first matching filename to be
truncated to one character.

An upcoming Windows Update is supposed to fix it.
