wxWidgets dependency does not forward the modules kwarg

[FichteFoll]

Trying to build a project that uses wxStyledTextCtrl, defined in the stc "module", does not work. It appears that the dependency does not honor or forward the modules kwargs.

The following test project shows the problem:

src/main.cpp

#include <wx/stc/stc.h>

int main(void) {
    wxStyledTextCtrl *canvas = new wxStyledTextCtrl();
    return 0;
}

meson.build

project('wx-test', ['c', 'cpp'], license : 'BSD-3-Clause',
        meson_version : '>=0.41.0',
        default_options : ['cpp_std=c++11', 'b_lto=true'])
deps = []
deps += dependency('wxWidgets', version : '>=3.0.0',
                   modules : ['std', 'stc', 'gl'])
src = files('src/main.cpp')
wx_test = executable('wx-test', src,
                     install : true,
                     dependencies : deps)

Build output (and command):
