The MSYS2/Mingw-w64 build also has a warning:

C:/emacs/git/emacs/master/src/emacs.c: In function 'load_pdump':
C:/emacs/git/emacs/master/src/emacs.c:752:28: warning: field precision specifier '.*' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 3 has type 'size_t' {aka 'long long unsigned int'} [-Wformat=]
     sprintf (dump_file, "%.*s%s", argv0_len - 4, argv[0], suffix);
                          ~~^~     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The following patch fixes the warning, and fixes the bug above without
needing a cast:
