Unable to build Crystal on x86_64-darwin

Help

Hey everyone!

On the Crystal update PR we are stuck on x86_64-darwin. All other archs (including aarch64-darwin) build successfully except that.

There’s 3 issues:

  1. It wouldn’t use clang 13 until CC was set manually

  2. It fails with:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
  "___darwin_check_fd_set_overflow", referenced from:
      _select_add in libevent.a(select.o)
      _select_del in libevent.a(select.o)
      _select_dispatch in libevent.a(select.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang-11: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
  1. (not critical (?)) Multiple ... was built for newer macOS version (10.12) than being linked (10.11) logs on both darwin archs, even though MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET was set (and supposed to fix that)

I don’t have a darwin machine so it’ll probably be better to post any suggested fixes on the issue for the other participants to test or review.

Unfortunately that flake seems to have other issues with x86_64-darwin and aarch64-darwin. :frowning:
