Error: export ordinal too large: 104116

I build the Inkscape from source code with:

$ cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
$ ninja install

And it return error as below.

[1002/1006] Building CXX object src/CMakeFiles/inkscape_base.dir/verbs.cpp.obj

collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

What will cause this error and how to solve it?

Note: I can build the Inkscape successfully without -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug.

There are too many symbols for compiling the DLLs, but I've managed to compile Inkscape with build style "Debug" and static linking, using the following command:

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -G Ninja ..
ninja install
