The patch I submitted with the Deb Science Team patches was accepted a few weeks ago, and the PR with the OpenCASCADE cMake file fix was finally merged today: https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/pull/9579

I have not retested yet, but I think that now our latest master will compile against MSYS2's latest master without any needed modifications of either.

Regarding the first: I don't think it's worth our time right now (unless you are bored and looking for a challenge!) but someday it might be nice to actually get FreeCAD into the MSYS packages repo: I don't know if they'll want us to be able to compile with either, their CI tests clang and gcc.
Mission accomplished! With https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/11560 I am now able to build:
  • * MinGW64 + gcc
    * MinGW64 + clang. But after an upgrade I have to disable the FEM module because of linking errors with vtk
