This is a result of the libgcc dll depending on the libwinpthread dll if
gcc is built with posix threading (this is to enable C++11 <thread>,
<mutex>, and <future>). There is no way around this, except linking libgcc
statically using -static-libgcc (perhaps with your options above, I haven't
used this myself) or plain -static. The latter will pull in every library
as static if available though. Make sure all libraries you are pulling in
are built the same way.
Frankly, I don't see the issue with only depending on the libgcc dll or
also the winpthread dll. If you do not want this, use a non-posix threads
gcc, and instead use the win32 variant.
