GLMakie and Plots fail to precompile under Julia 1.8.4

Seeing the list of *_dll that failed recompiling, I remind of my own problem earlier -
https://discourse.julialang.org/t/cygwin-mishap-with-julia-1-9-0-alpha1-plots-dlopen-cant-open-libcairo-2-dll/91179

You could try to use @giordano suggestion to debug the problem, see in the above thread :

Instead, try this:

]add DependencyWalker Cairo_jll
using DependencyWalker
using Cairo_jll # This will fail, it's ok, but it's needed to load the dependencies
Library("C:\\Users\\davidj\\.julia\\artifacts\\3aff78028a0bb2ad40ebc3ae7e465a52dcbe2730\\bin\\libcairo-2.dll")

This should hopefully show what modules cannot be found.

(Thanks again @giordano for the tip)

Hope it could help,
