That brings up something I was just thinking about. Is the mingw repository
really the correct place for end user programs? To me, the current division
between msys and mingw-w64 is:

msys2: For helper programs needed to build mingw libraries and executables,
especially those that need bash or autotools to build
mingw-w64: Pre-built libraries so you don't have to bring up a whole
developer environment/dependency chain for every project you want to build.

Would it be cleaner to have a separate repository for "end user programs"
for which upstream doesn't already provide a native build/installer?

Thanks,
Richard
