Thanks for working on this. Did you have an opportunity to test on Windows?

It took me a while to notice that the token POSIX serves a different
purpose than NO_MINGW: POSIX is only needed to skip a test, NO_MINGW is
only used to avoid a test-path-utils call. The reason for the complexity
is that you put both tokens in the same parameter position in the
invocations of the test cases.

You use NO_MINGW only twice. I would just skip these two tests, then the
parameter position is reserved for the prerequisite, and things stay simple.
