I doubt it, I was running a shell with this command:
find /usr/bin -name \*.dll -printf '%p:\n' -exec ldd '{}' \;

This was in Windows Terminal, msys2-runtime 3.5.3, on Windows 11
10.0.22631.3593.  (I realized I forgot to include these details).

I will attempt to reproduce this in Windows Sandbox with Cygwin next.
