On my PC I receive appropriate output for v1.5.1-patch. Libusb was updated to 1.0.22 in this version. Before v1.5.1-patch libusb warnings appear in the output.

I did never really “install” toolchains. Always just download archive and simply extract it in the destination folder.
A folder path should contain only ASCII without spaces.

For compile with a certain toolchain, I usually write a simple *.bat script. Like this:

set STLINKVER=git
set CMAKE=e:\test-st\cmake-3.4.0-win32-x86\bin\cmake.exe

set "CUR_DIR=%CD%"
cd %~dp0

PATH=e:\test-st\mingw64\bin;e:\test-st\cmake-3.4.0-win32-x86\bin\;%PATH%

cd %~dp0\stlink-%STLINKVER%

mkdir build-mingw64

cd .\build-mingw64

%CMAKE% -G "Ninja" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

%CMAKE% --build .

Before v1.5.1, I observe issues in output of st-info.
