Check results using R-devel on an arm64 ('M1') Mac running macOS 13.0.1
'Ventura' with Xcode/CLT 14.1 and an experimental build of gfortran
(a fork of 12.0).

Timezone Europe/London
Locale en_GB.UTF-8, LC_COLLATE=C

Details as in the R-admin manual, with config.site containing

CC=clang
OBJC=$CC
FC="/opt/R/arm64/gfortran/bin/gfortran -mtune=native"
CXX=clang++
CFLAGS="-falign-functions=8 -g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -Wconversion -Wno-sign-conversion"
CXXFLAGS="-g -O2 -Wall -pedantic -Wconversion -Wno-sign-conversion"
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/R/arm64/include
FFLAGS="-g -O2 -mmacosx-version-min=12.0"
FCFLAGS="-g -O2 -mmacosx-version-min=12.0"
LDFLAGS=-L/opt/R/arm64/lib
R_LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/R/arm64/lib

(The FFLAGS seems to be needed as that compiler will compile for macOS
13.0 and the linker will warn.)

External libraries were where possible installed via minor
modifications to Simon Urbanek's 'recipes' at
https://github.com/R-macos/recipes .  The exceptions are those which
need to use dynamic libraries (such as openmpi).

Currently this uses PROJ 9.1.0, GEOS 3.11.0, GDAL 3.5.3 and gsl 2.7.

pandoc is the Intel Mac version, currently 2.19.2 (and updated often).
(There is a self-contained M1 build available from Homebrew, 
another of 2.14.2 from https://mac.r-project.org/libs-arm64/.)

Java is 17.0.4.1 from https://adoptium.net

JAGS is a binary install from 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mcmc-jags/files/JAGS/4.x/Mac%20OS%20X/

ghoatscript is 10.0.0 built from the sources. (MacTeX 2022 provides 9.55.0).

There is a testing service for the CRAN M1mac setup at
https://mac.r-project.org/macbuilder/submit.html

Some ways in which this may differ from the CRAN checks:

- Using R-devel not R 4.[12].x
- timezone is Europe/London not Pacific/Auckland
- OS and Command Line Tools are kept up-to-date (at present the CRAN
    check service is running macOS 11 and Xcode/CLT 12).
- Later C/C++ compilers, different flags.
- External software is (mainly) kept up-to-date -- see above.
    This includes using Java 17 -- I believe the CRAN checks use a
      patched (by Zulu) Java 11.
    And cmake, currently 3.24.3.
    OpenMPI is installed for Rmpi, bigGP and pbdMPI
- 'R' is not on the path -- checking is by 'Rdev'.
- Package INLA is installed -- requires a binary install on Macs.

Note that Apple has deprecated C functions sprintf and vsprintf in
macOS 13 SDK: this also affect users of C++.  (And the much less
commonly used and widely deprecated gets, mktemp and tmpnam.)

A parellel make is used and packages are checked in parallel --
installing or checking a single package may use up to 8 CPUs.
