First, sorry about the multiple spammed replies! Gmail told me it was
failing to send and to come back later. When I came back later and sent the
definitive copy of my reply, I found that all my earlier clicks had also
succeeded. Oops.

Have you tried removing the -lkernel32? Does that suffice?

Well, the right people to submit the bug report to are the mingw-w64 people,
specifically Kai Tietz. I didn't, because at the time I hacked around the
GMP problems gcc was so broken that it hardly seemed a useful report. ;-)
Now it's a lot better and maybe he should know about this. For gmp, the
problem was alloca (which also allocates on the stack). Fortunately, gmp had
a compile-time option to change it's use of alloca to malloc.
