-Subject: [PATCH] Handle build with older versions of GCC
-
-Older versions of GCC (prior to 9.1) did not put the `std::filesystem`
-support directly into libstdcpp, but in a separate `libstdc++fs`.  Add
-meson logic to detect if an extra linker flag is necessary.
-
-Fixes #223.
-
-Tested on AlmaLinux 8 which uses GCC-8.
