X and Mesa have switched to Meson, and I've used it in a couple of other projects (including picolibc). On POSIX systems, it uses ninja (which is a light-weight 'make' analog), which is a very fast build system. Mesa compiles in much less time as a result. And, yes, it supports building static and shared libraries at the same time, and you can opt to make the static libraries PIC or non-PIC as you please. One huge advantage is that you program the build system in one language (meson's native configuration language), which has a clear syntax and consistent semantics. No more mixing m4, shell and make in a single file. Plus, that means that it can generate output for a variety of systems cleanly. -- -keith
