## Message

```
compiler: MinGW-w64 import libs should not count towards any_dyn_libs.

They are, themselves, static libraries even if the resulting artifact strictly
speaking requires dynamic linking to the corresponding system DLLs to run. Note,
though, that there's no libc-provided dynamic linker on Windows like on POSIX,
so this isn't particularly problematic.

This matches x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc behavior.

```
