Have you tried using our GTK3 and mariadb packages (and/or PKGBUILDs)?
pacman -S mingw-w64-{x86_64,i686}-gtk3 mingw-w64-{x86_64,i686}-libmariadbclient

I really recommend building everything using the same (i.e. the MSYS2
provided) version of GCC and also using our packages where available.
Seems we don't have libxls/xlslib and would appreciate a contribution
of those:
