It makes absolutely no difference what kind type of rules or operators are used
in a meta. Meta only works with and depends on "rulenames".
There is no "dependencies" other than waiting for all rules/rulenames to be
ready ($pms->{tests_already_hit}->{$rulename} created by got_hit or
rule_ready).
meta T_THREAD_INDEX_BAD __HAS_THREAD_INDEX && !__THREAD_INDEX_GOOD
For that do_meta_tests basically does:
$h = $pms->{tests_already_hit};
if (exists $h->{__HAS_THREAD_INDEX} && exists $h->{__THREAD_INDEX_GOOD}) {
$result = eval { $h->{__HAS_THREAD_INDEX} && !$h->{__THREAD_INDEX_GOOD} };
} else {
# loop until they exist, or declare unrun in finish_meta_tests
}
