--- Comment #19 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
This code in ld/emultempl/pe.em is the cause.  (also in pep.em)

                        /* Rename this implib to match the other one.  */
                        if (!bfd_set_filename (is->the_bfd->my_archive,
                                               other_bfd_filename))

You just can't do that when the filename is needed to reopen closed files.
