I've seen the same issue on emacs-30 and master branches. It seems to be
that emacs cannot find the libgccjit DLL after dumping.

Running emacs under gdb, and using a breakpoint on `redraw-display':

(gdb) r -Q
Starting program: C:\emacs\git\emacs\emacs-30\build\mingw64-x86_64-O2-native\src\emacs.exe -Q
[New Thread 11584.0x27b4]

[New Thread 11584.0x1ec8]
[New Thread 11584.0x2ad0]
[New Thread 11584.0x1a60]

Thread 1 hit Breakpoint 2, Fredraw_display () at C:/emacs/git/emacs/emacs-30/src/dispnew.c:3222

(gdb) pp Vlibrary_cache
((gccjit) (gccjit . t))

It seems odd that there are two entries here.

There is code at the end of syms_of_emacs in emacs.c that changes
Vdynamic_library_alist as a workaround for something similar, so have
other changes made that ineffective ?
