If you install Xcode 8 on 10.11, you need to make sure that
'xcode-select -p' reports /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
so that you are actually using the Xcode 8 compilers. The Command Line
Tools installed by Software Update or 'xcode-select --install' on
10.11 will be those from Xcode 7.3.1 and will provide the 10.11 SDK
installed in /.
