Looking at the code, everything Windows related is #ifdef WIN32, so it would appear not to matter to the runtime. However, due to these being on the link line, the libcurl.la file contains still includes these: # Libraries that this one depends upon. dependency_libs=' -L/usr/lib -lssl -lcrypto -lgdi32 -lwinmm -lz' Libtool hence will unnecessarily require w32api to be installed in order to link with these two. So I'd still say that they need to be avoided.
