I'm wondering whether that will result in expending a lot of effort
to move from a poorly-supported build system to a different
poorly-supported build system. As a project, we have an astonishingly
poor track record for choosing outside projects to rely on :-(.

One thing I particularly dislike about Meson, after reading its wikipedia
entry for a moment, is that it doesn't use "make" as the backend build
system. That means two major tooling changes not one, and double the
opportunity to find ourselves stuck with unsupported infrastructure.
I also politely decline the offer to be forced to use XCode on mac.
