Thinking about "cross-language build systems" reminds me of Zig cc
https://andrewkelley.me/post/zig-cc-powerful-drop-in-replacement-gcc-clang.html
#+BEGIN SRC sh
andy@ark ~/tmp> cat hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
fprintf(stderr, "Hello, World!\n");
return 0;
}
andy@ark ~/tmp> zig cc -o hello.exe hello.c -target x86_64-windows-gnu
andy@ark ~/tmp> wine64 hello.exe
Hello, World!
andy@ark ~/tmp> zig cc -o hello hello.c -target mipsel-linux-musl
andy@ark ~/tmp> qemu-mipsel ./hello
Hello, World!
andy@ark ~/tmp> zig cc -o hello hello.c -target aarch64-linux-gnu
andy@ark ~/tmp> qemu-aarch64 -L ~/Downloads/glibc/multi-2.31/install/glibcs/aarch64-linux-gnu ./hello
Hello, World!
#+END_SRC
I think that's pretty cool!
