Yeah, see https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1602
That said, maybe pipewire want's to borrow from systemd here:

https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/tools/meson-make-symlink.sh
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/meson.build#L600
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/meson.build#L1985

Seems to work well enough (at least on Linux).

Regards,
Michael
