Mingw-w32 build passes on W7 but fails on W10 #7712

I encounter a difference in building a mingw-w32 package in nominally identical, fresh MSYS2 setups: Building passes on W7 but it fails on W10. It's not an official MSYS2/MINGW package, but I still believe it is an unexpected difference in the toolchain behaviour.

I have recorded the output of the makepkg-mingw in the log files that I attach (I removed large chunks that showed no or only insignificant differences). The first significant difference occurs at line 112 of the shortened W10 log : The linker warns about not finding libraries, although they are definitely installed (installation is identical in W7 and W10, made by script), and the build aborts shortly after.
