"nativesdk-gio-querymodules.exe" is totally fine. This utility is used 
in only one place:
poky/scripts/postinst-intercepts/update_gio_module_cache, to generate 
the cache file of gio modules whenever the gio modules are installed or 
removed.

That script is called by postinst_intercept mechanism, which is 
triggered via meta/classes/gio-module-cache.bbclass every time a package 
that inherits that class is installed.

I am fairly sure that with the patch you sent it is not going to work 
for the nativesdk mingw case, as the script does prepend the MLPREFIX to 
the utility name (to call the correct version among many when multilib 
is in use). We would probably need to append the .exe suffix in there as 
well though.

Please do try populate_sdk with nativesdk-glib-2.0 included into it and 
watch for any warnings about failed postinst_intercepts.
