 Replying to [comment:20 angelog0]:
 > It fails to start because it lacks a dynamic library just adding that
 would solve this issue, I think

 It's a system library. iTerm2 decided not to bundle the swift libraries,
 and rely on system ones, whereas some other software does bundle the
 needed libraries.

 Now -- I believe I fixed this once through some fancy surgery. #59053. I
 found the missing swift library somewhere, and all it's supporting
 libraries, and moved that set into the app bundle. Then I messed around
 with install_name_tool until it actually worked.

 But it's too fragile to spend any time doing that again, at least for me.
