link.exe is the MSVC toolchain's equivalent of ld.  Oddly, it looks like 
-dump -symbols makes it act like nm - even though the binary you're 
supposed to be using is called dumpbin.exe.  Perhaps it's some funny 
backwards-compatibility thing?

Either way, without more of the config log it's difficult to tell why 
it's trying to use a half-msvc toolchain.
