Pocketbase in universal load

I want to use pocketbase in "universal load" but I get the following error:

✘ [ERROR] Unexpected "\x7f"

I'm having the same issue with Svelte + Typescript and Pocketbase version v0.14.3. I used pnpm create vite to bootstrap the project.

Edit: Seems to be related to having the Pocketbase binary in the root dir of the project; Move your binary to a subfolder (db) and run from there.

Svelte/Vite attempts to add pocketbase in the build process. Moving pocketbase executable outside of the project solves the problem.
Unless there's a way to tell Vite not to include pocketbase in the build process, this is the only solution.
