Yes, it's a known issue. Currently, collect2 is not used for mingw32
host or target. I have a patch, but needs a bit more work to get the
patch into a bit more acceptable form. There is a small change in
the configury as well (for your purposes, you can just comment out the
USE_COLLECT2 line in gcc/config/i386/t-mingw32 file).
