I don't mind installing this on master, but I'd rather document that
Emacs 28 cannot be built on macOS with such a new libgccjit than
destabilize the release branch, even if it's only for macOS.  E.g.,
who says that 'readlink' will always be available on macOS?

Is it really a problem to use only libgccjit 12.0 and older for the
release branch?

Thanks.
