The other thing that I am confused about is that you said you were
building on "Win10, Msys2/MinGW64".   Would Msys2 and MinGW64 not
be two different architectures?  Is it appropriate to be running (or
building) Msys2 programs in an MinGW64 shell?

Mixing two similar but distinct systems could have very confusing results.

The MSYS2 website tells me they have their own terminal program called
"mintty"; have you tried building or running in that terminal?
