Re: Yacc Shaving, or, Latest macOS CLT Laccs Something

I had always assumed they did not include the actual compiler and
that's
why Xcode was required. I've always installed full Xcode.
Yes, CLT includes the compiler and linker and suffices on its own for
Unix-style development purposes. (Just checked that
bootstrap/README.macOS says so, and it does.)
I've just committed the macOS patch to detect when m4 or yacc are
missing, allowing the tools framework to fall back as intended. I don't
expect the change to affect Xcode users, as they were already unaffected
by the problem, but please let me know of any new problems I've caused
or old problems I've missed.
For CLT 15.3.0.0.1.1708646388 users, I expect this to fix much of the
fallout, but not all. For instance, packages with configure scripts that
invoke "m4" or "yacc" (or "byacc") directly and haven't declared them in
USE_TOOLS will pop up a macOS dialog prompting you to install the CLT.
Don't bother with that, it doesn't help, but please do let us know when
and where you encounter this.
Happy Mac-ing,
