And my suggestion for achieving that is to not enable nativecomp in
this build.

Adding extra these extra mechanisms for Windows builds only seems to be
against the general GNU guidelines for non-free systems (as well as
adding an extra maintenance burden to an already complicated area,
because the code that finds and uses the extra pre-built trampolines
will have to be in the general comp.el code).
