That did the trick. I downgraded the packages to the versions you specified in 
your post and added them to the ignore file.

Now I'm on build step 13/14 and it is failing with:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:143 (message):
  Html Help Workshop not found

When I ran the initial setup-mingw64.ps1 script, it failed to download 
htmlhelp.exe from the Microsoft servers (404 error).
I commented that section of the script out to be able to continue on, figuring 
I would have to deal with it later.

So, this link is no longer valid for downloading the HTML Workshop Installer:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/a/9/0a939ef6-e31c-430f-a3df-dfae7960d564/htmlhelp.exe

I'm assuming Microsoft has discontinued support for it and scrubbed it from 
their servers?

I'm going to have to source it from somewhere else.

Relevant section of setup-mingw64.ps1 script:

# Install Html Help Workshop

$html_help_workshop_url =  
"http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/a/9/0a939ef6-e31c-430f-a3df-dfae7960d564/htmlhelp.exe";
$html_help_workshop_installer = "htmlhelp.exe"

$installed_hh = get-item -path "hkcu:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTML Help Workshop" | 
foreach-object{$_.GetValue("InstallDir")}

if (! (($installed_hh) -and (test-path -path $installed_hh))) {
  install-package -url $html_help_workshop_url -download_file 
"$download_dir\\$html_help_workshop_installer" -install_dir 
${env:ProgramFiles(x86)} -setup_cmd $html_help_workshop_installer
}
$hhctrl_ocx = "c:\Windows\System32\hhctrl.ocx"
if (!(test-path -path $hhctrl_ocx)) {
    write-host "Something's wrong with HTML Help Workshop, couldn't find 
$hhctrl_ocx."
    exit
}
$hhctrl_ocx = make-unixpath -path $hhctrl_ocx

If I recall when I get that sort of error it was a mismatch in webkit 
dependencies, did you see that section on my post?
