Yes, all that MSVC cares about is a) the symbol b) the path inside the .lib
pointing to an existing object. I was able to extract all of them successfully
using LIB.EXE and repackage them.

While this would undoubtedly be a good approach, given that LIB.EXE doesn't
complain and Rust is using their own archiving capabilities (as opposed to
LIB.EXE or binutils ar), I went with reporting it here.
