Hi Stephe, pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain mingw-w64-i686-toolchain [remove any arch you don't care about]
It may good to read the following ticket where I walk people through setting up a dev. env and building python2 from source (using our PKGBUILD recipe - I recommend making a PKGBUILD for monotone and submitting it to us too if you have the time/inclination!): http://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/tickets/32/?limit=10&page=1#216b Cheers, Ray.
