It looks like printf is being defined as a macro and that is conflicting with my usage as a method. Undefining the printf macro might help.
MSYS2 is not really supported, however it should work with some modulations. You mighty want to have a look at https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-aspell to see how the official MSYS2 package is built. It looks like there is a patch to fix the printf problem.
I might try building it myself when I have access to a windows machine. But it might take a week or two before I do that.
Thank you anyway for the patch, for some reason I had to apply it manually (« git apply » did not work). I attached the log.
I didn't use git to create the patch.
