Comment (by mfeiri@…):

 The summary in comment 3 was correct and this could have been fixed with a
 trivial update of the CarbonHeaders port.

 Jeremy, I do not understand what you refer to as "''hacks to work around
 bugs in other projects''" w.r.t. these headers ports. All previous
 conflicts (including those mentioned here in comment 4) were fixed months
 ago by following upstream behavior, moving system headers to a dedicated
 safe location outside the default include paths. Only your ports mentioned
 in #42500 were still missing. Additionally we resisted to expose internal
 API through these ports, e.g. in #42129. The only exception was in the
 early days of the ld64 port, which you co-maintained at the time and which
 you now maintain in macports with hacks weighing 200KB in patch files.

 Anyway, I will not resubmit these ports. This ticket can be closed.
