.cirrus.tasks.yml says:

   # disable -Dnls as the number of files it creates cause a noticable
slowdown...

   configure_script: |
    %BASH% -c "meson setup -Ddebug=true -Doptimization=g
-Dcassert=true -Dinjection_points=true -Db_pch=true -Dnls=disabled
-DTAR=%TAR% build"

If you turn that on then the next problem to solve is:

[03:28:24.318] Program msgfmt found: NO

It gets past that and enables NLS and compiles that code in the
optional MinGW build (assuming you enable it in meson).
