I just realize that libmingw*.a is not packed with w32api-runtime
anyway, so my question doesn't make sense.

I don't understand what you mean.  Can you rephrase the question?

Not sure, but the problem here was clearly that the crt2.o from
mingw-crt didn't match with what is provided by w32api-runtime.
However, there's no point linking against mingw-crt crt2.o but then use
the libs from w32api, so this isn't really a problem in w32api-runtime.

So, bottom line is, I'm not sure there's anything to fix in
w32api-runtime at all.
