Maybe it could be related to the version of Mac OS that the Emacs binary
was built on?

There are two knobs, MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED and
MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED, that change Emacs and operating system
behavior.  But I can never remember what they mean.  What if you build
Emacs with them defined to the same values that the Homebrew package was
built with?

I don't think you can obtain their values from binaries, so you will
probably have to ask the person who built the Homebrew package.
