Meson does not  fully build the project in one go and need to be run twice ?

To reproduce (I use Meson commands directly below to show that is is not related to meson-python):
```bash
meson setup build/test
# Start from a built project
ninja -C build/test

# ninja is timestamp-based to touching this pxd will cause things to rebuild
touch sklearn/utils/_typedefs.pxd
# 124 targets need to be rebuilt, this is expected
ninja -C build/test

# I expected "no work to do here"
# Actually 36 targets need to be rebuilt, which is NOT expected
ninja -C build/test
```

cc @eli-schwartz in case you have any suggestions on this.

I don't quite understand why the files need to be rebuilt, `ninja -d explain` does not shed too much light on it. Here is the `-d explain` output on the second build, it says `_dist_metrics.pyx.c` needs to be rebuilt although the first build did not think it needed to be rebuilt for some reason ...

The issue had originally been noticed by @ogrisel and @glemaitre inside a notebook (but is not notebook-related as the reproducer above show):
- the first `import sklearn` builds plenty of stuff, because switching between branches updates file timestamps (and ninja decides what to rebuild based on timestamp)
- the notebook then uses an estimator with `n_jobs>1` and you can see again things rebuilding

COMMENT:
I experienced the same strange behavior.
