So far, it's expected if you don't have libtree-sitter-python.dll
installed.

What followed the "Error output:" part? It is important to understand
whether the error was from the compiler or from some other part of the
installation process.
Also, "/msys64/ucrt64/usr/bin/gcc.exe" is not a full Windows file
name: it lacks the drive letter. You need to specify the full
absolute file name, including the drive letter. Or, if gcc.exe is on
PATH, I think you could simply say "gcc".

This seems to indicate those DLLs are incompatible with your Emacs
binary or something.

How is that different from what treesit-install-language-grammar does?
