Are you sure you mean build.sh? That's a shell script that (mostly)
just launches bsdmake. Make can get a bit esoteric, but I've never seen
a simple build system that scales well.

I have just successfully built tools from -current on my MacBook Pro
running Sequoia 15.2. What were the errors you got? It should work and
we are here to help.

My past experience with macOS is that has been a hostile environment to
build in and so I wasn't expecting the build to work. Well done to the
people who have been putting the hard work into getting this to go.

Ngā mihi,
