libclang.dll found but cannot initialize completer with libclang

See original GitHub issue

System info:

Sublime Text version: 3.2.1
Which system are you on: Windows 10
Clang version: 8.0.0

What happens:

I installed Easy Clang Complete, pointed it to clang++.exe in mingw64 bin folder, gave it the path to libclang.dll, it finds everything but always fails with a WinError126 and show_type_info error dialog pops up…

Log :

I’m doing the same with MSYS2 but using the Environment Settings package with settings similar to:

{
	"env": {
		"Windows": {
			"PATH": "C:\\msys2\\mingw64\\bin;C:\\msys2\\usr\\bin;%PATH%",
			"MSYSTEM": "MINGW64",
			"CHERE_INVOKING": "enabled_from_arguments"
		}
	}
}

This has been working very well for me.
