Which one will get executed depends on the shell type. msys_shell -mingw32 will execute /mingw32/bin/pkg-config and msys_shell -msys will execute /usr/bin/pkg-config.
Thanks for the detailed info.
Anyway it won't be easy to make me change my mind.
Last week I was playing around with "the latest and greatest" MSYS2 and found out that the mingw32 and mingw64 directories were full of "strange" and "garbage" stuff — in other words, full of files that were not supposed to be there...
