building on macOS 14

[Philip Race]

We only just switched to macos 13 SDK a few of weeks ago, so the next 
upgrade is probably a year away.
I can't see us popping up a user dialog. Even for a UI app. That would 
cause additional problems.
But when we see a fix for this on the Apple side, then we'll be able to 
make a more informed decision.
