Description
A friend wanted to build Chicken 5.3.0 on his "Mac OS 14" mac, and complained that it looked in the wrong place for tools.
He had to override stuff to make it build:
make PLATFORM=macosx PREFIX=...redacted... C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc \ LIBRARIAN=/usr/bin/ar POSTINSTALL_PROGRAM=/usr/bin/install_name_tool \ install
He has the XCode cli tools installed but not the UI. The makefile was trying to find stuff under /Developer/... but it ain't there no more.
