The library name is the main issue. It is possible to create a link to a .dll
file with ln -s, but the link name needs to be in the format gmp.lib, and not
libgmp.lib.

Renaming the lib to gmp.lib solves the issue.

For more information about linking dll files:
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/WIN32.html#index-direct-linking-to-a-dll-700


This all might be because Cerbero is not running gen_library_file for the
recipe gmp. For most other recipes there are xxx.lib files for each, generated
with gen_library_file.

I see two solutions:
  1. Have Cerbero generate the lib file using gendef and dlltool and discard
the link that make install creates
  2. Patch gmp to create a gmp.lib link to libgmp-10.dll, NOT libgmp.lib
