MSVC Version 14.1 not found with 14.2 installed #3664
Description
Describe the bug
I have VS2019 installed, with the VC++ 14.2, 14.1, and 14.0 build tools selected in the installer. When MSVC_VERSION="14.1" is specified, SCons cannot find the 14.1 build tools. When MSVC_VERSION="14.2" or 14.0 are specified, SCons works as expected.
