I had another go at this. As far as I can tell it causes all

At any rate the VMs are sat there eating host CPU.
Does 'make vm-build-freebsd' etc work for you ?
It has been hanging for some time but I hadn't debugged it until now.
It's caused by a missing dependency that causes bios-tables-test to fail
(badly). It's plausible that the meson upgrade triggered a different
build ordering for make/ninja, and made it hang for you as well.
There was also a related bug that caused the test to hang if bzip2 was
not available.
