Hello Murray,

How are you? As mentioned in the previous posts on this list, please see 
Apple’s comments on the new linker issue:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-15-release-notes#Linking
Xcode 15 Release Notes | Apple Developer Documentation
developer.apple.com

For now, use Xcode 15 and its command line tools and try to enforce the old 
linker by defining the following environment variables:

  export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=12
  export OTHER_LDFLAGS=-Wl,-ld_classic

You may place them into your ~/.profile file. I hope this helps.

Best wishes,
Maxim
