Just wondering which MinGW version you are using? I had no problem building
libftdi under MSYS2 distribution of MinGW-w64 (32/64bit).
Ref:

If you use MinGW.org (32bit only), take note it may not work well. In fact
at libusb project we no longer support MinGW.org unless someone is
willing to submit patches.
