Changes to revsecurity.dylib in LC 9.6.2?

[panagiotis merakos]

Also, I am not entirely sure but I think LC 9.6.2 rc-1 and above was built
with xcode 12.x, whereas 9.6.1 was built with Xcode 11.x. However, in both
cases LC was built against the macosx10.9 sdk.

Btw, the error msg and what you see looks similar to this report about
revzip https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23176, that's why I
suggested using entitlements when signing.

Cheers,
Panos
