Comment (by jef):

 I'd say the opposite - it's because of relying on the compatibility
 guarantees.  Microsoft changed the ABI at some point (probably
 unintentional) , so that a if the constexpr mutex constructor is used (ie.
 w/o _DISABLE_CONSTEXPR_MUTEX_CONSTRUCTOR) stuff built against a newer
 runtime will not work on older runtimes.  OSGeo4W ships a newer runtime
 that would work, but the older one in andreaerdna's system32 (but probably
 also on many other old machines) masks it (system32 is prioritized over
 anything in PATH).  Building with _DISABLE_CONSTEXPR_MUTEX_CONSTRUCTOR
 produces code that runs with the older and the newer versions of the
 runtime.

 Alternative solutions could be update system32 (admin access required) or
 copy the runtime DLLs everywhere other EXEs live (because . take priority
 over system32 and PATH) - or changing every .EXE so that it uses
 AddDllDirectory (like QGIS and python) to take system32 it's priority.
