   @paleolimbot Replying now from memory, but I think “binary”-referring arg 
was removed in that rewrite of configure. I can try still adding it there just 
to check.
   
   As of now, building is fixed (with a minimal patch to configure – just to 
ensure it does not break what otherwise works).
   
   I do think a failure handling could be improved: errors one gets now and not 
readable, IMO. I mean, if I do not patch anything and do not pass custom args, 
it should either still work correctly (like it did with 13.0.0) or at least 
give out a debug output pointing at the problem and failing where it is 
supposed to.
   What happens with 14.0.0 seems like a bug: there is no reason to proceed 
with a build but stripping off pkgconfig flags, that just cannot work. I think 
13.0.0 handled it more sensibly, but even if that is deemed undesirable now, 
erring out earlier with a clear error message would have prevented this issue.
