   A fine mess Apple seems to have created..

   I have to admit, I'm slightly surprised by the "install the command
line tools to get XCode 7 builds working", because I have assumed that
the command line tools were always required for pkgsrc.  Is that not the
case?

   If pkgsrc should be able to use XCode without the command line tools,
it should perhaps be pointed out that someone complained that otool was
gone from XCode 7 as well.  (And someone else said "no, it's there, but
it's just not made easily available without the command line tools
installed).

   mk/platform/Darwin.mk defaults LDD to "/usr/bin/otool -L", which
(presumably) only works with the CLT installed.

   Anyone with XCode 7, but without the CLT, who can check if otool is
gone from /usr/bin?
