As I get time, I'll mess with this and try it out.  Kids give me limited time.  
I did clone the winrt_runtime and start messing with it today.  I noticed a 
warning:

 [C]            cio.c
\winrt_runtime\cpp\cio.c:45:16: warning: '__acrt_iob_func' redeclared without dllimport attribute: previous dllimport ignored [-Wattributes]
  FILE* __cdecl __acrt_iob_func(unsigned);

Just a warning, but should I start an issue for it on your github repo 
in case it is important?  This is with msys2, GNAT/GCC 8.2.0
