OK, I have renounced to start sr-speedbar with Emacs and created this simple init.el initialization file:

$ cat init.el
(require 'sr-speedbar)

;; Setup sr-speedbar
(setq sr-speedbar-default-width 30)
(setq sr-speedbar-width 30)
(setq sr-speedbar-max-width 30)
(setq sr-speedbar-auto-refresh t)

with it, Emacs starts with *GNU Emacs* buffer and minibuffer has "For information....", as it is expected...

...but if now I open the sr-speedbar window:

  M-x sr-speedbar-open

I get the same BAD behavior... and the minibuffer shows "Opening directory: No such file or directory, c:/msys64/tmp/emacs-master/src/"! 

WHY it refers to its build directory??? 

Why all this occurs with the Windows build? I have built the same emacs-master.tar.gz source on GNU/Linux and macOS and there all works fine. On these systems I use the same method to start sr-speedbar (almost the same init.el). I start to think my Windows build was corrupted in some manner.. I will try a new build just to see if this fixes this annoying issue.

Thanks,
 Angelo.
