GCC Compiler can't seem to find linker


Hello.

I'm having a bit of an issue trying to compile LibArchive 3.3.1 for Windows. I have Mingw64 with GCC7.1 installed to prevent the Cygwin installer from linking it's DLL. At the end of the make process I seem to get this error:

make  all-am
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/nobodyimportant/libarchive-3.3.1'
  CCLD     libarchive.la
C:/Program Files/mingw-w64/x86_64-7.1.0-posix-seh-rt_v5-rev0/mingw64/bin/../lib /gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/7.1.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot
 find -link
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [Makefile:3334: libarchive.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/nobodyimportant/libarchive-3.3.1'
make: *** [Makefile:2929: all] Error 2

I can't tell what it's caused by, or what it wants because the error is so vague, is there something I can do to get this to compile?
