This patch caused my usual build process to fail. I have been setting
CC='ccache clang' in my environment, and I was able to fix make it
work again by also setting CXX='ccache clang'. Before that, I was
getting my macPorts version of clang (21.1.2) for C source files but
the OS version of clang (15.0.0) for c++ files. But I still don't
really understand how that caused this failure, which doesn't look
like it has anything to do with mixing compilers:
