For the moment I'll stick it into the netbsd template. I'm not on
board with having the meson stuff generating different executables
than the Makefiles do, so if someone wants to propose applying
this widely, they'll need to fix both. Seems like that is a good
thing to consider after the meson patches land. We don't need
unnecessary churn in that area before that.
