no. It's just the compiler, linker, eventually a debugger, + some
files (like the win32 headers and import libraries.

MSYS is not part of the toolchain. MSYS is a console with some tools
ported to Windows that can run in that console : a shell, ls, find,
etc... It also allows you to run autotools (autoconf, etc...)

There is no such installer for the mingw-w64 project (at least, no
official one, maybe there are some somewhere). Usually, you just need
an archive of mingw-w64 toolchain, untar it, and add to PATH the
directory where the compilers are located. That's what I do.
