    • Take last release as template
    • Update readme's if necessary
    • Copy changelog and tool documentation
    • Unpack tarball and create empty directories build64 and build32

    • Add -static-libgcc to FLAC's CFLAGS
    • Add -static-libgcc  -static-libstdc++ -Wl,-Bstatic,--whole-archive -lwinpthread -Wl,-Bdynamic,--no-whole-archive to FLAC's CXXFLAGS
    • Run CMake -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON .. && ninja in both build64 and build32 in the corresponding build environments
    • Check dependencies of flac.exe, metaflac.exe, libFLAC.dll and libFLAC++.dll, e.g. with objdump -x . | grep DLL. Dependencies should only include KERNEL32.DLL, ADVAPI32.DLL, msvcrt.dll and libFLAC.dll
