The package setup-amiga-gcc.exe is intended to be used in Windows without installing MSYS2. It should also work having MSYS2.

I remember there was a problem with make and shell. That's why the cmdline.bat creates a wrapper for make.exe. The real make.exe was renamed to _make.exe. The new make.exe invokes _make.exe with setting SHELL=c:\amiga-gcc\bin\sh.exe

If you are using MSYS2 then you have to verify which make.exe is used. Also some of the DLLs may be duplicates or even worse: differ a bit.

Invoke a real make.exe - not the wrapper and maybe you have to provide the variable SHELL=....

You should remove all files in amiga-gcc/bin which are dups of files in MSYS2

Nowaday you shouldn't use MSYS2, you should use WSL2, which is soooooooooooooooooooooo much faster.
