I remember fixing a very similar issue with
d4ddf22d54f9374715c651aaebda2315e9f89272. The issue was cross-building
QEMU does not work, because it's dragging packages built with
meson-build-system.

Turns out we want to use a native build of QEMU here, so I replaced
#$qemu by #+qemu. Now there must be a similar issue somewhere. I'm
building your branch to see if I can figure it out.

Thanks for sharing your progress!

Mathieu
