The import libraries do seem to use the right name as far as I can see, but there's another aspect I remembered now: This does create unversioned symlinks too (not while building but once you do `ninja install`). This probably is neat to have, but for cases when things are packaged up in e.g. zip files or something else that doesn't handle symlinks, one might want not to have them. Within llvm-mingw I guess I can have them stripped out before packaging though.
