I tried Iain's repo and it fails in the same way.

I have been building the tools on MacOS for over a decade with just the Apple
base to make sure we have a clean platform without any issues. To do that I
avoid MacPorts and Homebrew. I am fine with our users making use of those
packages however knowing a build works with just the Apple support makes our
support simpler.
