No, it is in the build directory:

$ x86_64-w64-mingw32-nm default-manifest.o
0000000000000000 d .rsrc

The /usr/lib has the correct arch though.  I think it should be compiled
as default-manifest-new.o like ld-new so it does not accidentally
interfere with the build.

I'm not too familiar how to change the Makefile logic to do this though,
I'll write a bit to the binutils list.
