Is that a "We need the *.la files for MinGW packages" or "We need the
*.la files in MinGW packages"?

I think it's the latter but want to make sure.

Also, as Patrice erroneously points out, some packages will break
without the *.la files.  I have yet to see a package where that's
actually a "needs" case.  However, I have seen places where the upstream
code looks for the *.la file when libltdl (the libtool library) is
willing to look for either the *.so or the *.la.
