Does this problem still persist with the latest version of QEMU (since
we switched the build system mostly to meson now)?

Title:
Missing 'cmp' utility makes build take 10 times as long
Status in QEMU:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have been doing some work cross compiling qemu for Windows using a
minimal Fedora container. Recently I started hitting some timeouts on
the CI service and noticed a build of all targets was going over 1
hour.
It seems like the 'cmp' utility from diffutils is used somewhere in
the process and if it's missing, either a configure or a make gets run
way too many times - I'll try to pull logs from the CI system at some
stage soon.
Could a warning or error be added if cmp is missing?
