Probably saying something stupid here as I've no idea how this packaging
process works in Windows or exactly what it means but anyway...

In GNU/linux I do something similar in my Docker recipe where I need to
move all the libgccjit stuff from the build container to the one I ship.

How I do it is just to configure and compile libgccjit using --prefix
and then in the target directory I know I've everything I need for that
[1].

Just an idea, hope it helps.

Thanks
