Description

On a Windows 11 machine, either swift build or swift run work the first time, but on repeated execution they report an error:

Build of product 'win32test' complete! (0.10s)
warning: unable to create symbolic link at C:\src\scratch.build\debug: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=516 "A file with the same name already exists."

Reproduction

Run:

swift package init --type executable --name win32test
swift build
swift run

Expected behavior

Expected that repeated swift run invocations are idempotent.

Environment

Swift version 6.0-dev (LLVM c3efe9282719c35, Swift b163fed)
Target: aarch64-unknown-windows-msvc
