Is it really a compiler bug if the root cause is in library code?

Right, this blog finds a bug in binutils not restoring a register in a single code path on Windows.

That is not a compiler bug.

dlltool generates implibs. quick-lint-js has a .def -> .lib build step in its CMake build system. I'd say this is a form of compilation.
