 Right, and it worked for me on macOS 12. So evidently something has
 changed as of the version of Xcode that we use on macOS 14.

 I already mentioned that in the bug report URL in comment:10. I cannot
 guarantee that that is the correct way to fix the issue. That fix means
 that `--version-script` will not be used if it is not understood, but
 nothing else will be used in its place, and I do not know if something
 else should be used in its place. For example, the previous fix for
 unsupportd `--version-script` on macOS used `-export-symbols` in its
 place. I was hoping the developers of devhelp would chime in but so far
 nobody has responded to my bug report.
