This builds towards the goal of being able to cross-build NumPy without requiring code
execution on the target environment, or an emulator thereof.
With this patch, setting the
longdouble_format
key onproperties
section of theMeson cross file, will skip the runtime check.
Example:
It may be possible to rewrite the check to entirely skip the need of running code on the
target at build time, but I haven't looked into that at this point. That would be a possible
future improvement.
