Eli's fixes have addressed issues with the MinGW toolchains, but Mingw64
64bit builds are still broken:

C:/emacs/git/emacs/master/src/pdumper.c: In function 'dump_read_all':
C:/emacs/git/emacs/master/src/pdumper.c:5078:60: error: conversion from 'size_t' {aka 'long long unsigned int'} to 'unsigned int' may change value [-Werror=conversion]
 5078 |       ssize_t chunk = read (fd, (char *) buf + bytes_read, chunk_to_read);
      |                                                            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
