[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I have had these installed for ages, but as it turns out my Xcode path was still pointing to /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer -_-.

Switching to CLT I now don’t get warnings about vfork() when building emacs anymore, but have now gotten the following warning:

nproc.c:321:21: warning: passing 'const int [2]' to parameter of type 'int *' discards qualifiers [-Wincompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers]
        if (sysctl (mib[i], ARRAY_SIZE (mib[i]), &nprocs, &len, NULL, 0) == 0
                    ^~~~~~
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/sys/sysctl.h:770:21: note: passing argument to parameter here
int     sysctl(int *, u_int, void *, size_t *, void *, size_t);
                    ^
1 warning generated.
