rhel-8 lacks 'pidfd_open()' support and thus nbdkit can't be enabled there. mingw builds explicitly disable nbdkit support, but use '--auto-features=enabled' thus omitting setting of 'nbdkit_config_default' results in meson thinking we want to enable it: ../meson.build:1018:2: ERROR: Problem encountered: nbdkit_config_default requires nbdkit to be enabled Disable it explicitly. The meson logic might need to be fixed eventually when switching it on by default.
