Description
Currently trying to build a coastline package or XCW demo fails for me with a message like:
/usr/local/cross/lib/gcc/amd64-helenos/8.2.0/../../../../amd64-helenos/bin/ld: /data/helenos/harbours/build/helenos/lib/libclui.a: error adding symbols: malformed archive
With the updated toolchain the problems stays the same, but the message changes:
/usr/local/cross-2023/lib/gcc/amd64-helenos/13.1.1/../../../../amd64-helenos/bin/ld: /data/helenos/branch/pr226-toolchain_update/build/export/lib/libui.a(/data/helenos/branch/pr226-toolchain_update/build/export/lib/libui.a.p/ui_src_image.c.o): error opening thin archive member: No such file or directory
The archive is a thin archive and the referred file does not exist.
I assume this was caused by the feature introduced in Meson 0.60.0 where thin archives (xxx-ar T) are used automatically, if available. Because during export.sh the .a files are kept, but the .o files are not, we get thin archives with content missing.

Yet another incompatible Meson change that bit us. I'd say maybe it's wrong that we don't require a particular Meson version for building.
