Building Notmuch on macOS is known to cause problems because the Notmuch
distribution archive contains two files named "version". These clash
with the <version> keyword as defined in C++20 [1] and will likely
become obvious on other platforms as well once Compilers adopt the new
standard.
The two affected files in the Notmuch Git tree are
/bindings/python-cffi/version
/version
I suggest to rename them both to version.txt. The attached patch can
then be applied to make the necessary build file changes.
