So after applying this series, at least on Fedora, I barely needed
configure at all, in so muc as the following successfully built AFAICT:

$ mkdir build
$ cat > build/config-host.mak <<EOF
all:
GIT=git
GIT_SUBMODULES=ui/keycodemapdb tests/fp/berkeley-testfloat-3 tests/fp/berkeley-softfloat-3 dtc
GIT_SUBMODULES_ACTION=update
CONFIG_POSIX=y
CONFIG_LINUX=y
SRC_PATH=/home/berrange/src/virt/qemu
TARGET_DIRS=x86_64-softmmu
CONFIG_PLUGIN=y
HAVE_GDB_BIN=/usr/bin/gdb
ENGINE=podman
ROMS=pc-bios/optionrom
MAKE=make
PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 -B
GENISOIMAGE=/usr/bin/genisoimage
MESON=/usr/bin/meson
NINJA=/usr/bin/ninja
PKG_CONFIG=
CC=cc
EXESUF=
TCG_TESTS_TARGETS= x86_64-softmmu
EOF
$ meson build
$ ninja -C build

Out of the things in config-host.mak there, a few meson already knows,
like CC, SRC_PATH, 50% would be just a meson find_program() command,
a couple would need meson args (eg TARGET_DIRS), and some just look
redundant, eg CONFIG_LINUX largely duplicates __linux__, and
CONFIG_POSIX is effectively  !_WIN32.


With regards,
Daniel
