Last year, Brook Milligan submitted a patch for macOS. [1] Is there any
chance that this could be included in the codebase?

The patch resolves problems with Homebrew packaging of QScintilla for
Apple Silicon, where we use the non-standard installation prefix
/opt/homebrew. [2] Without it, attempting to import the Qsci library in
Python produces the following error:

   ==> /opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/bin/python3 test.py
   Traceback (most recent call last):

The patch also seems to have resolved issues encountered by MacPorts. [3]

P.S. Apologies if you’re getting this twice. I’ve resent it because I
suspect my first message was caught by the spam filter.

You can pass qmake variables on the command line. There is no need for a patch.
