The shims are a thin wrapper over the rclone RPC.
The implementation is based on cgo; to build it you need Go and a GCC compatible
C compiler (GCC or Clang). On Windows you can use the MinGW port of GCC,
e.g. by installing it in a [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org) distribution
(make sure you install GCC in the classic mingw64 subsystem, the ucrt64 version
is not compatible with cgo).

and recommended UCRT64 subsystem, however there were compatibility issues with previous
versions of cgo where, if not force rebuild with go build option `-a` helped, you had
to resort to the classic MINGW64 subsystem).
