Building from source silently fails

On Windows 10 Home, I run Calibre from source using this batch file:

Code:
@ECHO OFF
set CALIBRE_DEVELOP_FROM=D:\Documents\git\calibre\src
"c:\Program Files\calibre2\calibre-debug" -g
It was working up until I had to reboot a few hours ago. Now it just immediately closes the console window and I don't see any text before it does. I also monitor the temporary folder and nothing appears in there.

Here are things I've tried:

- Using Sourcetree to pull the latest code. There was one change about a libstemmer.
- Double-checking that Calibre was not silently running in the background.
- Switched to a test library in case it was something involving the recent composite column recursion fixes.
- Since I'm not sure how to run without plugins with source, temporarily moving my plugins folder outside of Calibre's appdata folder. (in fact, according to last-accessed dates, it doesn't even touch anything in appdata)
- Rebooting again.

Regular Calibre runs fine, but there's a bugfix I use that's currently in source.

Any suggestions?
