Has anyone run into an out of memory exit when calling racket_boot on mac os x?

Mine was working fine until i turned system integrity protection back on, now i can't seem to get it to work.

Anyway, just wanted to check here before i dig further. Please lmk if you have run into this...

I figured out what the issue was in my embedded racket app on mac os x (with the misleading out of memory error). Chez was dying in an mmap in segment.c that was asking for PROT_EXEC memory. The solution is either to disable the hardened runtime in Xcode or to leave it on but check "Allow Unsigned Executable Memory" (com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory) in Target -> Signing and Capabilities
