[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]
I noticed the following errors in the 64-bit Windows build instructions
in the file nt/INSTALL.W64 when using a new MSYS2 installation.

The library liblcms2 is not currently available using pacman, which
causes the pacman command shown to fail, but it works if that library is
removed. It might be best to recommend trying to install liblcms2
separately, in the hope that it will become available in the future.

There is no file mingw64_shell.bat in the \msys64 folder. However, there
is an item labelled "MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit" in the Windows Start menu,
which seems to work correctly. Also, msys2_shell.bat is actually
msys2_shell.cmd.

Apart from the above issues the build went well and the resulting
version of Emacs seems to have worked correctly so far.
