Mine does not; I usually use VSCode for developing and debugging (only occassionally Visual Studio for the latter). Debugging works using "cppvsdbg" instead of "cppdbg"; besides "launch", "attach" also works fine if you have started VSCode with elevated privileges. I'm running the build steps from an external console, but integrating that in VSCode on Windows shouldn't be hard. Oh, and VSCode on Windows is also fine for developing and debugging php-src in WSL.
