It should be supported, I think we need to analyze the problem further
first. It's extremely odd that the problem only happens when invoked from one
version of powershell but not the other. I assume there's a difference in
PATH leading to a different version of *something* being used.

Bilal, you apparently can repro the failure happening in one shell but not the
other? Could you send the PATH variable set in either shell and
meson-logs/meson-log.txt for both the working and non-working case?
