[python-win32] pywin32 building under mingw64/msys2

[Kristiine Silinja]

Good day!

I have just pulled the master state of pywin32 from github. When building
it under mingw64/msys2 on Windows I get a following error:
Building pywin32 3.8.300.1
Windows 10 SDK version 10.0.16299.0 is preferred, but that's not installed
Installed versions are ['10.0.19041.0']
Using 10.0.19041.0
running install
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
error: don't know how to compile C/C++ code on platform 'nt' with 'mingw64'
compiler

Python version: Python 3.8.7 [GCC 10.2.0 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Would appreciate any help in getting pywin32 installed to Python under
msys2. Perhaps other libraries could be tweaked (e.g. distutils)? A quick
search on the topic was not as helpful.

With best regards,
