Is your MSYS Perl the Perl bundled with current official MSYS git packages?
Also, AFAIK, if a method isn't implemented in MM_Win32.pm, it falls back to MM_Unix.pm. A Win32 MakeMaker makefile is made from a mix of methods from different .pms. MM_Unix implements cflags method, so shouldn't that be getting called instead of the Win32 specific cflags method if Win32 specific cflags method doesn't exist?
