Tesseract 4.0 Win64 LSTM release mode fails

[THintz]

The current tesseract 4.0 source reports errors and produces no output.  The same source built in debug mode works without complaint.  In both cases "best" was used for eng.traindata.

I traced the problem to the project's Inline Function Expansion setting of "Any Suitable (/Ob2)" applied when release mode is selected.

This is with the current patches of Visual Studio 2017.  I don't know whether or not older Visual Studios have the same problem.
