As I mentioned in the Github issue, we should move to the following model

* Builds for *old* versions of macOS, should use jack weak linking to work with *old* builds of JackOSX (if they can find it).

* Builds for *newer* versions of macOS, should be built linking to the newer official Jack mac builds. This requires a newer build system and Jack pre-installed.

This is on 10.15.7. I don't have access to other macOS versions right
now and I fully support being cautious. But contrary to your statement
that JACK1 is more 'compatible', the Pd.app I get from Miller's site
doesn't run with JACK2, which I believe is what users normally install
these days. The site http://www.jackosx.com mentioned in INSTALL.txt
doesn't exist anymore.
