See https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/problem-to-compile-a-dll-on-mingw/3661/2

for the short explanation.

More in depth discussions:

- the patch that explain why the behaviour changed:

I had two choices:
|
||
|
|
- either use `eval $(ocaml-env cygwin)`
|
||
|
|
- or add a `-link -static-libgcc` at link time
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first solution works "for me": the PATH environment variable is modified on
|
||
|
|
my computer, and things are working fine. But since my goal is to distribute the
|
||
|
|
DLL to others, who do not necessarily have cygwin installed, I chose the second
|
||
|
|
solution.
