pacman fails due to dependency conflict

See original GitHub issue

Here’s a new error that just started showing up in our CI builds:

  :: Starting core system upgrade...
  warning: terminate other MSYS2 programs before proceeding
  resolving dependencies...
  looking for conflicting packages...
  error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
  :: installing filesystem (2020.02-3) breaks dependency 'msys2-base' required by dash
  ##[error]The process 'C:\windows\system32\cmd.exe' failed with exit code 1

https://github.com/gambit/gambit/runs/800489774#step:3:183

Perhaps something changed recently in MSYS2 that caused this?
