The obvious solution is to install GNU gettext binaries for Windows (of
the same bitness, 32-bit or 64-bit, as your package's binaries) and
make sure that the $PATH contains the directory with libintl-8.dll.

For mingw, you can find these binaries at
https://mlocati.github.io/articles/gettext-iconv-windows.html, for example.
