+** Native Compilation on macOS

+Native complitation requires the libgccjit library to be installed and
+its path available to Emacs.  Errors such as:
+
+    libgccjit.so: error: error invoking gcc driver
+    Error: Internal native compiler error failed to compile
+
+indicate Emacs can't find the library in running time.  One can set
+the "LIBRARY_PATH" environment variable in the early initalization
+file; for example:
+
+(setenv "LIBRARY_PATH"
+  (string-join
+    '("/usr/local/opt/gcc/lib/gcc/11"
+      "/usr/local/opt/libgccjit/lib/gcc/11"
