Hi Cleverson,
and welcome to the community!
I have only built Chicken for Win using msys2, but maybe I can help still.
How did you build Chicken? Are you building from cmd.exe? Is there any more
output from csc that we can see? Please send full transcripts of your make
and csc invokation.
Sometimes problems with your build setup doesn't show until you try to use
it.
Did you read the Readme-section under Windows? In particular, the PREFIX is
really picky:

It seems your path is missing a backslash in C:, I wonder if there is a
forgottet escaped \ somewhere (one \ instead of two). Or maybe that's just
msys pickery.
Your choice of PATH looks good to me.
