>From what I can tell, that error can only happen if you don't have read-write
permissions to /tmp or something like that, but Python can create the temporary
directory, so it's quite confusing.

It's definitely a meson bug that it's not outputting the actual exception that
is happening. The error happens here:

https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/blob/0.41/mesonbuild/compilers.py#L723

Can you edit that file in your meson installation and change the "except ...
pass" to "except ... raise" and tell us what the traceback is? That should give
us more information.
