This reverts commit b7035fb0da.
This patch was previously introduced for bug 868516, and hit pushback by
multiple parties that wanted to see this discussed upstream. After some
coaxing and arm-twisting, an upstream issue was finally opened (but no
patch submitted). The patch in ::gentoo went stale, and got dropped.
base-system@ is uninterested in maintaining this out of tree patch given
the situation (and neither am I).
After the ticket was opened upstream, it was retracted by the submitter:
> I decided to fix the problem from out custom version of xtools's end.
Now it's back as a local patch to dev-build/meson, where it's just going
to bitrot another time? No explanation for why this is necessary,
especially if xtools added compatible output. No attempt to submit a PR
to meson. No bug link to cross-reference relevant bugs.
Solve this by reducing the local-patches tech debt and punting on the
issue, pending actual upstreaming. We can revisit backporting a patch if
and when it will constitute a backport of a patch available in upstream
git master.
