Even if they included those, one would still have missing calls in kernel32.dll and ntdll.dll.

On second look codeblocks-20.03 still shows promise for running under Windows XP.

The dependency trouble all branches from exchndl.dll, which branches to dbghelp.dll and mgwhelp.dll.

The issue is with this debugging library, v0.9.1.0  https://github.com/jrfonseca/drmingw

Download v0.8.2.0 from there and copy the dll and sym files to the codeblocks 20.03 folder to make it run in Windows XP.

(I did have some wxWidgets non-fatal error, which was caused by v20.03 portable referring to my v16 install location. When putting 20.03 portable in the path that I had previously installed v16 to, there is no error)

Edit: Deal breaker in attached image, back to v16 or v17. Or if someone manages to find a Win32 nightly build dated march 2021 or later, which is when the symbols browser was fixed.

Link is told to expire soon, so download now if you care for it.

The drmingw-0.8.2 trick still applies.
