Building host tools on Windows

I am trying to build the host tools on Windows, and I have hit a road
block.  Specifically, I get the output:
  HOSTCC  tools/mkeficapsule
tools/mkeficapsule.c:18:10: fatal error: uuid/uuid.h: No such file or
directory
   18 | #include <uuid/uuid.h>

Steps so far:
Download latest msys
Double upgrade with "pacman -Syu"
pacman -S gcc make bison diffutils openssl-devel
pacman -S git
git clone from denx.de
pacman -S flex (because make complained "flex was missing"

Now I have the above error.  I am not familiar with MSYS packages - I have
tried "e2fsprogs" and "uuid-dev" but neither are found.  Which package do I
need to include?
