The FreeBSD graph is a fully recursive "all dependencies" graph, both for
building and running, the debian graph seems to be truncated somehow,
because otherwise that would be a very handicapped py3 instance.

And as I said: meson is probably not to blame, I just wanted to illustrate
my concern.

If all you use make(1) for is running processes, it's as good as anything
(except maybe jam(1)).  The hard part about make(1) is getting _all_
your dependencies recorded _correctly_ in the makefile.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
