And without relocation info in PE binary, it is not possible to
relocate base address. Which makes dynamic base non-working.
I don't know about the rest, but this one sounds familiar to me. But IIRC
this one was fixed semi-recently (1-2 years ago), while making
--dynamicbase the default.
I think it was fixed in this binutils commit:

Change the default characteristics of DLLs built by the linker to more
secure settings.
This commit is included in binutils 2.36 and later.
