Thanks for very valuable clarification. I am now thinking if I did not link (by asome accident) with a DLL compiled with the rubenvb build (I was experimenting with it briefly), therefore Dependency Walker showed me a DLL wanted to load libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll, but it was a 32bit one instead of the 64bit one.
I think I will attempt a clean-install and clean-build before continuing any further.
