Thanks.  It also confused me trying between setup and configure.  

As the use of meson in this project is a fairly recent development,
if we want to entice more people and interest those in the "make"
world, we should try to leave enough droppings for them, even the
meson-novice ones like myself, to try out themselves whenever we
have a chance, and the proposed log message of a commit that adds or
fixes meson related part of the system is one of the good place to
do so.

For me, both were confusing equally ;-)

Very nice to know.

Thanks.
