Compile error Bind 9.16.1 on MacOS 10.14.6

[Larry Stone]

Thanks, Ondrej. It took some doing but got the latest Xcode for my version of MacOS installed (multi GB so long time to download, then a long time to expand). Bind 9.16.1 the built and is now running on my “test” system (it’s my laptop but I use it to test stuff before it goes on my server (but not running MacOS Server) Macintosh).

For anyone else having this issue, Apple does not make it easy to get older versions of Xcode. The App Store will only offer the latest which is for Catalina (MacOS 10.15.x). I haven’t upgraded yet so it took some time to find how to get an older version from the Apple Developers website. 

And honestly, I hadn’t realized how out of date my version of Xcode was as I only use the command line tools and everything had been working fine until today. Something to add to the MacOS upgrade checklist.
