I'm still not sure whose bug this is, but I've found a workaround that
libpeas can use (or a fix that can be applied, depending whether this
is considered to be a bug in Meson or in libpeas).
I'll close the original FTBFS report by fixing or working around this in
libpeas; I'm cloning it as a non-RC Meson bug report for investigation
of whether Meson is doing the wrong thing.
Please see the upstream Meson bug for more details and a somewhat
minimal reproducer.
Thanks,
