You are barking up the wrong tree, since:

1. The test passes on MinGW and Cygwin with gcc, if wouldn't do that if
   -no-undefined was the cause of the fail.
2. The patch in the old quoted message makes the test pass on MSVC, which
   it wouldn't do if -no-undefined was the cause of the fail.

"PATH magic" is not relevant if -no-undefined is not passed, since everything
should be static in that case (no dlls created).
