[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hello all,

I will try to summarise the situation, and I am attaching my updated
solution proposal for this particular bug:

1. MSYS2 uname must be handled properly, and that is fixed in the new
proposed patch.  I disagree with not renaming opsys from mingw32 to
mingw, since mingw32 string is used in other places in the same file
and it means something else there, which I find possibly confusing.
But this change is not in my new patch.

2. -mtune is back to what it was with a minimal change required for
MSYS2+MinGW-w64 uname handling.

3. Include path for xpm in MSYS2+MinGW-w64 is handled in the same way
as in Cygwin.  Perhaps, the same type of comment as was added for
Cygwin should be added for MSYS2+MinGW-w64.

4. A loop is added in the recipe for emacs.exe to handle
bootstrap-emacs.exe busy problem.

Best regards,

Karol
