ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

Note that this works fine if:

• fmt::join is used with std::string instead of std::string_view (replace fmt::join(svs, ", ") with fmt::join(strings, ", "))
• The non-module version (header only or library) is used (edit CMakeLists.txt and main.cpp to use the default build instead of a module).

That is, it only fails when using both std::string_view and the module build. It happens with other range iterators, like std::unordered_map and so on.

I though it might be some missing export but I can't find what's missing.

Simple patch to change from module to non-module version:
