No, that should *not* be the case.  5.3.3 was published, to correct this
very defect, earlier last week; if you keep your mingw-get catalogue up
to date, it should show 5.3.3 as the current version.  If you go to the
download site at https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/releases/, under the
Windows System Libraries heading, 5.3.3 is the only version you should see.

Much more recent than GCC-9.2.0?  Hardly.

It's not just their QA which is doubtful.  Their use of the product
name, "MinGW64", infringes our legally registered trademark.
