Possibly cross building is confusing it?  Or possibly msys2 isn't built with the native dialogs? Or I don't have a clue what I'm talking about (probably number 3).

Certainly calling them directly without any integration with the GTK mainloop is always likely to cause issues, the mainloop can still run and callback Geany code while its waiting for the dialog, which is dangerous because Geany isn't written to permit that.
