Hi all,
I'm getting similar errors on Windows, VS 2017, when building for static 
link:

[520/529] LINK cctest.exe cctest.exe.pdb
FAILED: cctest.exe cctest.exe.pdb
C:/Users/stevenan/gh/depot_tools/win_tools-2_7_6_bin/python/bin/python.exe 
../../build/toolchain/win/tool_wrapper.py link-wrapper environment.x64 
False link.exe /nologo /OUT:./cctest.exe /PDB:./cctest.exe.pdb 
@./cctest.exe.rsp
LINK : warning LNK4001: no object files specified; libraries used
LINK : error LNK1218: warning treated as error; no output file generated
[525/529] LINK v8_simple_wasm_globals_section_fuzzer.exe 
v8_simple_wasm_globals_section_fuzzer.exe.pdb
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.


The build does totally succeed if I build without these gn args:

is_component_build = false
v8_static_library = true


But this does not produce v8_base.lib. All other libs I need appear to be 
there, but not v8_base.lib. I do however see v8_base_0.lib and 
v8_base_1.lib - are those useable..?
