Fails to build when CUDA is enabled

[stderr-to-devnull]

I configured my WSL instance with pointers to libraries inside the CUDA toolkit installation from Windows host.

With the default options and the appropriate cross compile config file, using the Linux nvcc (which is cross-compile capable), the build is successful:

meson setup build libvmaf --cross-file mingw-w64-cross.txt --buildtype release --default-library static --prefix ~/vmaf_win/built

But when enabling CUDA inside libvmaf/meson_options.txt (setting value from false to true):

option('enable_cuda',

The build fails:

I attached the the full meson-log.txt file (275KB).

Reminder: the build succeeds when CUDA is disabled (default) but fails when enabled
