For the record, if you are experimenting with building R-devel using 
msys2 toolchains, you should also remove various _STATIC macros from the 
make files (as you are linking dynamically).

There is a document I wrote with more details 
(https://developer.r-project.org/WindowsBuilds/winutf8/winutf8.html). It 
is very outdated, but at least this part still applies, and points to a 
patch: https://developer.r-project.org/WindowsBuilds/winutf8/nostatic.diff

Dynamic linking against third party libraries on Windows is not 
officially supported by R. This is only useful for experimenting, e.g. 
for testing R code on compilers available in msys2 but not yet in Rtools 
(and I have done that myself with Windows/aarch64 before building Rtools 
for the platform).
