a new shiny buildtool that currently completes in the total of ~ 4 min..
1 min. conf time
2:30 min. build time
Where autotools takes:
1:50 min. conf time
3:40 min. build time.
meson was taken because it went quite good for enlightenment, and is a traction gaining system that is also used by other mayor projects. Additionally, the DSL that is defined my meson makes the configuration of the builds a lot easier to read.
Further informations can be gathered from the README.meson
Right now, bindings & windows support are missing.
It is highly recommented to use meson 0.48 due to optimizations in meson
that reduced the time the meson call would need.

this greatly improves build times by improving parallelizing, though it
does introduce more BUILT_SOURCES usage which causes builds with cxx
bindings to take significantly longer

Warning: This disables CXX examples because they use
now-internal APIs that have no EO API binding.
Those examples should be updated to use Efl.Ui widgets... once
we have them.
While we used different variation of mkdir -p all over we also had spots
where we did not use the option. This is one step in trying to make our
build system ready for parallel install. Using something like -j 10 even
for the install should help to speed up our jenkins jobs as well as distcheck.
