Unfortunately there is another issue when the --enable-mergedlib is
used - as a workaround I created an additional jobconfiguration that
disables the switch.

But also note that there is a bibisect repository for windows that can
also be used for QA purposes
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bibisect/Windows#Versions →
git clone https://bibisect.libreoffice.org/win64-6.5.git (initially
the version was 6.5, but in the meantime master was already changed to
7.0, but the repo's name didn't change)
