Thanks for the patch!

There was an earlier patch[1] for this from Elliot Haisley which looks 
more complete that Andres seemed a bit interested in but as far as I 
know no progress has been made on it recently. You could help out by 
testing it out and reviewing it.

Out of curiosity since I am quite new to Meson: what is your personal 
use case for wrap subprojects?
