Since the build system has been converted to meson, I think the

Hmm... it should be the same (or if not it's a bug).
Also I wonder whether we could maybe even get rid of the capstone and slirp
submodules in QEMU now
At least for slirp, we probably want to stay more on the bleeding edge
which implies having to keep the submodule. Capstone and libfdt
probably can go, though at least libfdt may be more useful on Windows.
