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?
