I made a mistake and checked on the tagged version, not on the emacs-27 branch itself. I double-checked, and you are right. It will break the emacs-27 as you said. Sorry for the confusion.

This is the Makefile on the emacs-27 branch with the patch, and it will not fly:

./src/Makefile
...
DO_CODESIGN=$(patsubst aarch64-apple-darwin%,yes,arm-apple-darwin20.2.0)

So, we need the patch only on the master, considering these recent changes in the `config.quess`.
