Build failure on macOS

Has anyone encountered the same issue with me? I am running a macOS Tahoe v26.5.2 and the current master branch won't build there, and then I made this PR: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/32057

I can try and see if I can reproduce. Would it make sense to form some pingable groups such as @OpenSSL-macOS that allows to ping contributors with interest in specific platforms from a PR or issue?

I know @Neil Horman did a lot of work to try and do some auto assign people based on file paths, maybe a manual approach is benificial as well?

I was able to successfully build on macOS 26.6.1 at the tip of master. I did not, however, add any arguments to ./config.

./config
make -sj10

Succeeded without issue.

I do get errors when I try:

./config -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=1 -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L
make -sj10

It seems only add '--strict-warnings' would also fail? IIRC
