Ah, I realize now that this is from meson compile html, not 'ninja html'. That
explains why I couldn't reproduce this initially and why CI didn't complain.
I don't really understand why meson compile complains in this case.  I assume
you don't want to disambiguate as suggested, by building html:alias instead?
