Thanks, I could reproduce the issue like this.

But it took me too long to figure out that I needed to patch iconv so
that it understand CP65001:

https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-libiconv/0003-add-cp65001-as-utf8-alias.patch

But with this now I don't get these encoding warnings any more.
