Ah-hah: the "cached" bit gave me the clue I needed.  I think
you ran "meson setup" without numactl-devel installed, and it
cached the fact that numa.h wasn't there.  I can reproduce
this error with

$ sudo dnf remove numactl-devel
$ git clean -dfxq
$ meson setup build
$ sudo dnf install numactl-devel
$ meson setup build --reconfigure

... which ends with

Run-time dependency numa found: YES 2.0.19

meson.build:957:12: ERROR: C header 'numa.h' not found

It's okay again after blowing away the build subdirectory
(e.g. via "git clean -dfxq") and trying again.

This implies that it caches info about header presence but
not library presence (else it wouldn't have thought that
the library was there either, I guess).  Kind of weird,
but I'm still learning about meson.

            regards, tom lane
