I doubt it helps for CORE-5007 (as it was stated in master),
that ticket most likely got fixed beforehand already.
But I already tested: Delay-loading fixes CORE-15795,
which was unhidden by 0.4.12-dev-632-g
d93e516747
The fix by delay loading was cherry picked from commit
0.4.14-dev-475-g

It's not just a workaround, Windows delay-loads like that as well.
Thomas believes this specific delay-load will not trigger
the LD bug CORE-6504 within our gcc toolchain.
Thanks for help of Mark Jansen, Thomas Faber and Fabian Maurer.
* [CMAKE] Fix for CMP0018
The new behaviour lets us explicitly disabling position independent code, avoiding the need to change undocumented variables
* LINK_DEPENDS is semicolon separated
* [CMAKE] Fix for CMP0005
it seems impossible to have cmake correct escape PROXY_CLSID_IS so move it to the header
There is no need to compile our DLLs as shared libraries since we are
managing symbols exports and imports through spec files.
On my system, this reduces the configure-time by a factor of two.
