No strong objection to this change, but for meson the better way to handle
this may be to put these flags into the cross-file used for the build. By
explicitly passing CFLAGS etc. to the build, I'm not sure what the
behaviour is with regards to passing those flags to cross-built vs
native-built components. For a cross-compile, not all CFLAGS should be
passed to the build of pmdinfogen, for instance.
