You're calling wcsdup somewhere, and libceoldname.a resolves
that automatically to _wcsdup for compatilibity.

This has been talked about before several times. The fix is very easy
but no one has ever done that. I've also asked before, which is the
form that works for everyone, and noone replied. The easiest
may probably be to change libceoldname.a. It's a matter of changing
mingw/Makefile.in, where it reads:
libceoldname.a: moldname-coredll.def $(MOLD_OBJS)
$(DLLTOOL) --as $(AS) -k -U \
--dllname coredll.dll \
--def moldname-coredll.def \
--output-lib $@
$(AR) rc $@ $(MOLD_OBJS)
$(RANLIB) $@
Change the coredll.dll to COREDLL. Since no one who was hit
by the problem (it seems to depend on CE version or
machine/manufacturer) reported which is the correct form for
them, coredll.dll or COREDLL, we haven't fixed it yet.
Can you try it, please? Or perhaps someone can provide him
a prebuilt libceoldname.a with the fix? I'm not setup
to build one right now.
