For the actual issue at hand, the problem arises from doing builds on 3.6 with both the VS2015 and VS2017 images. Apparently something built in /externals by the VS2015 build gets cached, which then breaks the VS2017 build; I haven't tracked down how exactly that is happening. I think the preferred solution is probably to just drop the VS2017 build on 3.6 on AppVeyor; VSTS runs on VS2017 and dropping one of the builds from 3.6 will make AppVeyor significantly quicker on that branch.

Do we have a VS2017 buildbot on the 3.6 branch? If yes, I vote to drop VS2017 in the pre-commit hook (AppVeyor) since it would make AppVeyor twice faster on 3.6!
