Hi, This is a question that would be better asked on the p5p mailing list ( perl5-port...@perl.org), or raised as an Issue at https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues . And I encourage you to ask about this on either one of those 2 forums.
Having someone who is involved in the development of mingw-w64 (such as yourself) take an active interest in perl is something we'd definitely welcome. For example, https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/17521 has been causing some head-scratching for about 3 month.
