This fails due to a bug in bazel / in rules_cc (depending on bazel version). See bazelbuild/rules_cc#623

This does look more correct, but this issue is subtle enough that I think it deserves a test so it doesn't regress.

This is a new instance of a similar problem described in bazelbuild/bazel#12448. In order for windows binaries to run, the (non-system) dlls need to be copied to the same directory. However, the code that determined that was only looking at the package label and the workspace, but not the actual subdirectory. Previously, this was fixed by adding the lib.is_source check, but this only solves it for source files.
