I've tested v2 and can confirm that it works as v1, `vcregress check`
passes with no failures on REL_16_STABLE, `meson test` with the basic
configuration too.

By the way, hamerkop is not configured to enable gssapi for HEAD [1] and
I could not enable gss locally yet (just passing extra_lib_dirs,
extra_include_dirs doesn't work for me).

It looks like we need to find a way to enable it for meson to continue
testing v17+ with GSS on Windows.
