I think I figured it out, it only happens on systems where the Xcode version is
newer than the OS it seems.
See:
https://forum.unity.com/threads/il2cpp-macstandalone-and-xcode-11-4.855187/
So looks like the failure happens due to the system sysroot or something like
that missing symbols from the Xcode sysroot, so I think this patch is
still correct
in that case as it forces the use of the Xcode sysroot for linking which should
be what we want as we want it to match sysroot passed to the compiler.
