Description
Xcode 15 introduced a new linker, which is faster (said by Apple) but it cause some problems with existing software. Compiling ffmpeg port's cannot be done, because somewhere in the building process, multiple symbol exports are created with the same name, and the new linker cant link it. Apple introduced a new ldflag, which can bring back the old one, but this is a temporary solution, because this flag will be phased out in the future (date not disclosed yet).
