I haven't had time to actually do anything with it yet, but I can report that meson and ninja are, as of quite recently, available in the package repository of OpenIndiana. That's the distribution of illumos I found very convenient to work with last time I turned the Solaris-family machines red in the build farm. The reason I like it is that there's a rolling "vagrant" image (libvirt and virtualbox flavours), so it's possible to spin up a working VM with minimum effort. My current way of keeping track of what commands are needed to install the various packages PostgreSQL needs for niche OSes corresponding to our build farm is to record it all in Vagrant files. https://github.com/macdice/postgresql-dev-vagrant/blob/master/openindiana/Vagrantfile
