You're missing libc-devel/libc-dev (or similar name) package ?

Jonas Maebe:
You have to install the command line developer tools using xcode-select --install

See also Getting Started (Intel and ARM64).rtf in either /Users/Shared/Free Pascal Compiler/Documentation, or on the disk image with the installation package.

Ah, I've misreaded Target OS

Thanks for the suggestion but they are definitely installed. I'm a long-time iOS and MacOS developer with multiple compilers that rely on the Xcode Command Line Tools.

Welp, after posting that ridiculous statement, I decided to give it a try. Apparently even a "long-time (and overly arrogant) Apple developer" shouldn't make assumptions. smh

Thanks so much for the suggestion. Sorry for the ridiculous reply.

Tom
