networkmanager-1.32.12-1 fails to build[2] because "-D polkit_agent=true" is no longer recognized. I wonder why it used to build before … maybe some dependency (like meson or polkit) has changed?

I'm maintaining the AUR package networkmanager-iwd. See this comment[0] for details and here[1] for the (small) fix.
