I retried building with the most recent feature/native-comp branch and if you
skip to the last code block, you can see how I managed to build emacs with it
and use it (I've been using a similar build on Win10 for about 2 days). I can
confirm that my previous hack for ="" is not needed anymore.

Indeed, if I do =find /mingw64 -name libgccjit\*dll=, I only get
=/mingw64/bin/libgccjit-0.dll= as result. That files comes from
mingw-w64-x86_64-libgccjit, as shown by =pacman -Qo /mingw64/bin/libgccjit-0.dll=.
So I try again, but now also patching in libgccjit-0.dll to replace libgccjit.dll.

#+end_example
This crash is due to the =#pragma GCC diagnostic= around a =if
(gcc_jit_global_set_initializer)=: see this example program where the
=#pragma= around the =if(...)= makes it into a separate statement from the
={...}= body. Apparently, on my machine, =gcc_jit_global_set_initializer= is
NULL but the body gets executed anyway.
#+begin_src c :exports code
/* save as /tmp/t.c, then run (cd /tmp && gcc t.c && ./a.exe) */
/* It should print nothing at all, but on my machine, it prints

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
