Hi,

the mingw64 toolchain is usually built as a cross compiler, so its not
his fault there, its not supposed to be renamed. Will it be possible to
check first if the host machine actually allows using tzdata related
stuff before erroring out?

Disclaimer: I don't know anything about tzdata or zic other than its for
timezone information.
