Very interesting! I have included this customization to the build of
libintl, libasprintf, and libtextstyle.
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gettext.git;a=commitdiff;h=45500ab1765581d6a3b7d2e6a6c2595466de70af
These libraries no longer depend on libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll.

I have NOT applied it to the executables, some of which depend on libstdc++
anyway.

I have also NOT applied it to libgettextlib and libgettextsrc, because
these libraries are not used by other packages.
