Please keep to send reply to octave ML to record discussion between related 
people.
The records are opened in the  ML archives and the octave Nabble forum 
and might be help to other peoples in the future.

BTW,
From the report pkg -verbose

The pkg system uses msys+MinGW installed in octave folder but not external 
MinGW.
You environmental variables setting in your PC obviously breaks this.

MinGW version is 4.9.2 which is bundled with octave-4.0.0 but not 4.7.0 


How did you start octave?
1. Short cut icon 2. octave.vbs  3. octave.bat 4. octave-gui or octave-cli

Short cut icon is pointed to octave.vbs so it is the same as execute octave via 
octave.vbs

1. 2. are proffered because environmental variable is set properly. 

Anyway I would like to confirm for your PATH with in octave 
What the below tells?

>> system ('sh')      
sh-3.1$ echo $PATH

Form me, 
/usr/bin:(other paths)


The first path should be /usr/bin, otherwise your octave fails to set 
environmental variable in
msys sh shell which is bundled in octave-4.0.0.
