Thanks, that is getting me further. I still seem to be holding it wrong
in different places, though...
- on an x86 system, configure fails with:
../meson.build:1257:3: ERROR: Key CONFIG_QEMU_PRIVATE_XTS is not in dict
- on an s390x system, it mostly builds, but I end up with a bunch of
link errors for libblock.fa, where it fails to find various ZSTD_
symbols

I gave it a try; no errors, but then I realized that the image does not
seem to get rebuilt? I'll double check later.
