As of 2020, this turned out to be impossible even with lots of compromises and dirty workarounds.

Summary:

  • conf.linker.command = 'x86_64-w64-mingw32-ld' seems to be the only way to build mruby-onig-regexp on mruby-cli container, which blocks builds of other mrbgems, at least mruby-yaml.
  • mruby doesn't have Kernel#spawn and Process.waitpid which work on Windows. I thought this hack might work but didn't reach a stage to test it.

Let's revisit this 5 years later or so.
