Building using meson on POWER

Hi,

I want to build Midnight Commander on an IBM POWER9 machine, which has GLib as a dependency, so I tried building GLib using meson first. Using version 2.67.0 tarball, I get the following error message:

subprojects/libffi/src/meson.build:71:2: ERROR: Problem encountered: Unsupported pair: system "linux", cpu family "ppc64"

Here are some system details:

$ uname -a
Linux tellico-master0 4.14.0-115.10.1.el7a.ppc64le #1 SMP Wed Jun 26 09:32:17 UTC 2019 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux

$ cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.6 (Maipo)

$ gcc --version
gcc (Spack GCC) 10.2.0
