Hello, I am following the instructions here:

https://wiki.dlang.org/Building_LDC_runtime_libraries

I'm on OSX and need a ELF D RTL for i386.

I've used HomeBrew to install x86_64-elf-gcc, ninja and cmake.  
The command I'm issuing is:

`CC=/usr/local/Cellar/x86_64-elf-gcc/12.2.0/bin/x86_64-elf-gcc 
ldc-build-runtime --ninja --dFlags="-mtriple=i386-none-elf"
`

I'm getting the below result. Is there a known way to get past 
the `search_paths` issue? Or perhaps a better way to build the 
i386 elf RT on OS X?

Hi,

I assume that this is for the [ldc 
group](https://forum.dlang.org/group/ldc) instead of gdc.

Generically, building druntime should be fine, you'll need a 
sufficiently old enough version of osx to run 32-bit binaries - I 
forget when they dropped multilib support, around 10.9? - which 
means that there might be some missing symbols reported when 
building Phobos (posix_memalign might be one).

oh, thank you for your reply.  I'll repost to the LDC group.
