 some further refinement. The next step is to identify a dependent port
 that can utilize it, update to use it, and see if all is well.

 All of this is a huge step forward.

 I'd recommend OpenImageIO as your test case. Larry Gritz, the architect
 and primary developer, is a portability genius; he's also on the OpenEXR
 Technical Steering Committee.

 Our next meeting is tomorrow, May the Fourth [kind of appropriate since
 Cary Philips chairs the meetings and he's from ILM]. The zoom link is
 unchanged from above.

 I think everyone who is responsible for the modern build process of Imath
 and OpenEXR is a regular attendee (the other key person is Kimball
 Thurston of Wētā, who oversaw the transition from autotools to cmake, and
 he's usually present as well. If you don't make the meeting tomorrow, the
 next one is in two weeks. We'd love to hear from you in person what it's
 like to teach a macOS package manager how to build OpenEXR [and soon Imath
 I hope].
