How to link with binary using mingw32 in wine

1

I have made this minimal project to reproduce my link problem using mingw32 in wine32:

CMakeLists.txt

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.13)
set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON)

project("tst" VERSION 1.1.0)

add_executable("tst" "main.cpp")

add_library("resource" "text.o")
set_target_properties("resource" PROPERTIES LINKER_LANGUAGE CXX)
add_custom_command(OUTPUT "text.o"
    MAIN_DEPENDENCY "text"
    COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND} -E copy "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/text" "text"
    COMMAND ${CMAKE_LINKER} -r -b binary "text" -o "text.o"
)
set_source_files_properties("text" PROPERTIES GENERATED true EXTERNAL_OBJECT true)

target_link_libraries("tst" "resource")

main.cpp

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

extern char _binary_text_start[];
extern char _binary_text_end[];

int main()
{
    std::string text{ _binary_text_start, _binary_text_end };
    std::cout << text << std::endl;
}

Hello, World!

This project builds and runs using mingw-w64 on Linux; however, when I try to build the project in wine32, I got this output:
