I had tried reinstalling msys2 from scratch in order to build Kicad numerous times according the "easy way" instructions and another tool winmakekicad. I had also built OCE from scratch.
I had (I thought) previously tried to build Kicad the not easy way and failed previously.
Reinstalling msys2 takes time and has the potential for screwing up other things I am doing. Because I figured the most recent "not easy way" build instructions would fail I ran them without reinstalling Msys2 fresh. This make for release and debug versions worked.
As such, it may be that the history of my Msys installation or some other thing like having built OCE may have enabled the build to work.
I just thought I'd mention it in case it mattered.
So, long story short my Msys2 is a relatively recent (past few weeks version), updated with pacman -Syuu a few times and not a fresh, virgin install.
Does that make sense?

That is great brain what is the version of the "not new Msys2" please?
Bug description:
As per the title, after numerous attempts, this fails on Windows 10.
I completely installed Msys2 and made sure there were no other
instances.
$ makepkg-mingw -is
runs for several minutes and fails with
"CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:577 (find_package):
By not providing "FindOCE.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "OCE", but
CMake did not find one.
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "OCE" (requested
version 0.16) with any of the following names:
OCEConfig.cmake
oce-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "OCE" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "OCE_DIR"
to a directory containing one of the above files. If "OCE" provides a
separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed."
Initially these files were not in my computer. I went to the directory
mingw-w64-oce
and there were only 3 files: oce-i686.install, oce-x86_64.install, and PKGBUILD. The only one I could figure out what to do with was PKGBUILD, so I ran
$ makepkg-mingw -is
within mingw-w64.
This ran for several hours. It gave me errors

Sure enough the build of OCE failed at 78%

I tried to make Kicad again as per the instructions and got the same
error.
I am pretty much stuck here: I followed the instructions at http://docs.kicad-
pcb.org/doxygen/md_Documentation_development_compiling.html#msys2_easy
exactly and the make fails.
I assume this is addressed to me.
