It could be part of the scripts in admin/nt/dist-build instead, yes.

The Windows build with nativecomp is supposed to be fully workable on
systems that don't have libgccjit, even if the libgccjit bundled with
the zip file is not installed or deleted. If there are issues with
that, they should be fixed, because we want to allow users to move
Emacs from system top system without the optional libraries, and have
a functional Emacs, like is already the case with image libraries.
