I was working on that and hit an issue that took me a while to resolve: Once I tested only the "main" meson commit plus CI the windows task was running out of memory. There was an outage of the CI provider at the same time, so I first blamed it on that. But it turns out to be "legitimately" high memory usage related to debug symbols - the only reason CI didn't show that before was that it's incidentally fixed as a indirect consequence of using precompiled headers, in a later commit. Argh. It can also be fixed by the option required to use ccache at some point, so I'll do that for now. Greetings, Andres Freund
