Couldn't you just use the Makefile parser José wrote for the scons
build, that would avoid running make and waiting for a new version of
Meson. Or is there something it is lacking?

We could start out with our own Makefile parser and then move onto one
in Meson once it is upstreamed and that version of meson is commonly
available?

Cheers, Jakob.
