For mingw-w64 version you need to first find it with pacman -Ss then call
it out explicitly

$ pacman -Ss cmake
mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-cmake 3.4.1-1
    A cross-platform open-source make system (mingw-w64)
mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-extra-cmake-modules 5.18.0-1
    Extra CMake modules (mingw-w64)
mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake 3.4.1-1
    A cross-platform open-source make system (mingw-w64)
mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-extra-cmake-modules 5.18.0-1
    Extra CMake modules (mingw-w64)
msys/cmake 3.2.3-1 [installed: 3.3.2-1]
    A cross-platform open-source make system


 So you will need to "pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake"; before you were
getting the posix MSYS version.
This has "MSYS Makefiles" removed precisely so it isn't confused. To get a
more up-to-date cmake you can
bootstrap the source easy enough and 1. copy prefix/bin into /mingw64/bin
and
2. copy prefix/share/cmake-3.X to /mingw64/share  (that's how I got my
3.3.2 back when it was "new").

I have to fall back on the Windows version of CMake I am afraid.

 That should mostly work but some aspects, maybe TCL-related, might use the
cmake origination location
to be found.
