+Subject: [PATCH] meson.build: fix wrong .symver detection
+
+As pointed here [1] __has_attribute() is broken for many attributes and
+if it doesn't support the specific attribute it returns true, so we
+can't really rely on that for this check. This lead to Buildroot
+libfuse3 build failure [2] where that shows up with:
+```
+error: symver is only supported on ELF platforms
+```
+Indeed Microblaze doesn't support ELF since it doesn't include elfos.h,
+but __has_attribute(symver) returns true.
+
+So let's substitute the #ifdef __has_attribute() with a stronger test on
+a function foo() with __attribute__((symver ("test@TEST"))).
