Last year. I reported several optimiser bugs in their C/C++ compiler for
ARM64. They fixed some and supplied workarounds for the others. I have
two advantages in doing this: 

I work for a large company (I can speak more freely if I don't say who),
which pays a lot for Microsoft support. That gets you listened to, as
does being polite and clear. We don't get charged for fixes that are due
to Microsoft bugs, and they are pretty reasonable about making that
decision. 

I have been reporting compiler bugs to Microsoft since ... checks ...
1997, and have a decent working relationship with them. My reports are
clear, and usually correct, and they act on them quite promptly.
