I think that libgcc might be related to the problem. Maybe something in
libpoppler uses something in the Windows C library that is not in the libraries
that are part of mingw. The poppler configure script searches for a lot of
functions, and maybe it discovered a function in a Windows library, and calling
that function brings in something in the Windows stdio implementation that
conflicts with the version in mingw's libraries.
Can you add -v to the compile command to show the full link line? g++ adds a
number of libraries automatically, and probably mingw adds some additional
Windows libraries.
Once you have the full link line, you can paste it into a script and try
removing Windows libraries to see what ends up undefined.
Also, was your poppler dll built with the same mingw version that you have
installed on your PC? You might be able to use "strings" or a good editor to
search for "GCC" in the poppler dll.
The stack trace that you send a few days ago had lines that started something
like poppler.dll!printf.o. Does that mean that parts of libc are embedded in
poppler.dll?
Can you post your poppler.dll? I am not sure if Linux objdump can parse it, but
it would be interesting to see if that library has more than just poppler code.
