Setting linker in cross file not working properly

[Andrew Gillan]

I am using the Microchip xc8 toolchain in my cross build. I set the compiler and linker as follows:

[binaries]

c = 'xc8-cc'

c_ld = 'xc8-cc'

The compilation works properly, but meson attempts to use xc16-gcc when linking instead.

Am I missing something about setting the linker properly?

Regards,

Andrew
