Are you saying that *just* rebuilding from source on your computer was sufficient to get LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX to be used? If so, why did building from source on your computer work but building from source on our build machines did not work? Is this a feature introduced in Xcode after version 12.2? I have not updated our Big Sur build machines past Xcode 12.2 yet.

Or did you have to modify the Portfiles in some way to get LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX to be used?

You tell us; we've never heard of this before.
