Comment (by jasonliu--):
I have created a ticket for the {{{simdutf}}} build failures on macOS
10.14 Mojave and older: ticket:74252. As I stated in my initial report for
that ticket, if {{{simdutf}}} really cannot be compiled for Mojave and
older, then perhaps the answer would be to remove {{{+vte}}} from the
default variants of the {{{virt-viewer}}} port on Mojave and older. This
would at least potentially allow the {{{virt-viewer}}} port to
successfully build on older macOSes, even though serial support for SPICE
would be disabled by default. If this were to be done, then some
build/install notes might also need to be added on Mojave and older
stating that serial console support is disabled.
