The error I get is:

I believe this is due to position independent executable now being enabled by default.

A fix that seems to work is adding linkoptions { "-no-pie" } to each project.

Please just modify this to work yourself. If you have a pull request that fixes this issue (while having other platform still work), I'm happy to merge it. Thanks
