Temporary directories left after build on macOS due to dlsym bug

Tue Nov 28 14:43:44 UTC 2023

As reported in JDK-8320863[1], a bug in dlsym on macOS will leave 
multiple supposedly temporary directories behind when building.

A fix is currently being reviewed[2] that will work around this dlsym 
bug to prohibit the creation of more directories like this, but it will 
not delete the ones that have already been created. A manual cleanup is 
needed to do that.

These directories can be removed by running:

|find /var/folders -name "dsymutil-*" -type d -delete|.

Thanks to Jaikiran for discovering the issue and the fix!
