@networkimprov requested issue #40795 (fixed by e463c28 in Go 1.16) to be considered for backport to the next 1.15 minor release.

@gopherbot please backport to 1.15

buildmode=pie became the default in 1.15, so folks have to manually set buildmode=exe to work around this bug.

Approving per discussion in a release meeting as a serious issue without a good workaround (setting -buildmode=exe is a workaround, but this doesn't scale across developers). Only Go 1.15 needs this backport.

Take into account #43591 (comment) before backporting this issue.

Marking one functions with __declspec(dllexport) forces mingw to
create .reloc section without having to export all symbols.
