To do that without creating a new release, of course, means using a toolchain version other than that which the excellent Nico in fact used. FYI the MSYS2 package sources don't provide old versions of packages. Their currently available MinGW-W64 toolchains won't build a 64-bit Emacs that works on Windows 7 from the 25.3 release. Will the mingw.org toolchains described in nt/INSTALL do it?
