What's the problem with vc-test?  Do you have RCS installed, and does
it crash?  If so, I'm working on that (the problem seems to be in RCS).

This command is expected to fail in test/automated/vs-tests.el:133:

 (shell-command-to-string (format "cvs -Q -d:local:%s co module" tmp-dir))

because tmp-dir is a windows path, aka c:/Users/.../temp .

I have an msys2/rcs installed:

$ pacman -Q rcs

rcs 5.9.4-1

$ pacman -Q cvs

cvs 1.11.23-2

But if I'm right, being an msys2 rcs/cvs, they don't support native win32 path syntax.
