One thing I conceptually don't understand yet is this error: "Some Kotlin/Native targets cannot be built on this mingw_x64 machine and are disabled"

Why do I need to build my KMP library on a Mac when it only has code in the common source set and doesn't do anything with Cocoapods et cetera? The K/N documentation states:
> By default, a Kotlin/Native target is compiled down to a *.klib library artifact, which can be consumed by Kotlin/Native itself as a dependency but cannot be executed or used as a native library.
So I would expect that only later, when the library is being used in a project that actually builds an XCFramework and such, a Mac is needed. Can somebody help me understand this?

common isn’t in fact some common kotlin dialect (for now). It’s an intersection of capabilities of declared targets. And for compiling Apple-targets Kotlin/Native needs Xcode tooling and headers which are only available on macOS.
