I tried to cross compile FreeBSD on macOS. I choose the clang20 from
homebrew and got the error message:

--- libsys.so.7.full ---
Building shared library libsys.so.7
[...]
clang: error: invalid linker name in argument '--ld-path=lld'
*** [libsys.so.7.full] Error code 1

Apparently, the workaround in share/mk/bsd.sys.mk with mapping ld.lld
-> lld no longer works
