Are you looking at sequential use of PETSc - or parallel? I see mpich
doesn't work with msys/mingw.

You can try an install of petsc with msys - and see if it works. If not send
us logs at petsc-maint.

[its possible things won't work - and you would have to use
cygwin/gfortran. Presumably it shouldn't conflict with your msys
install]
