Debian offers the MinGW-w64 cross compiler in both POSIX and Win32 thread model 
variants, and you chose to use the Win32 variant? Well, this is simple. You 
simply need to switch to use the POSIX variant of the MinGW-w64 cross compiler, 
easy peasy.

Your wording is wrong. You said `By default, mingw libstdc++ uses the win32 
thread model.`. This is simply wrong. The MinGW-w64 cross compiler you chose to 
use is targeting the Win32 thread model. Right. But MinGW-w64 in general? Nope.

I have no idea why you chose the Win32 thread model variant from the beginning. 
It's very unpopular. No one uses it. Popular MinGW-w64 distros like winlibs.com 
doesn't even provide Win32 thread model builds. People all use POSIX thread 
model for maximum compatibility.

BTW, Github Actions does provide MSYS2 in their CI. Why don't you simply use 
that for your Windows builds? Why cross compile from Linux but still need to 
grab MSYS2 packages to extract for libraries? If you managed to cross compile 
from Linux, why don't you cross compile everything you need instead of stealing 
prebuilt libraries from MSYS2 packages?

Why do you make everything that complicated? I can't get it.

BTW, MSYS2 in CI: https://www.msys2.org/docs/ci/
