Fix "ld: symbol(s) not found" for some C system calls in MacOS if XCode is for a newer major MacOS version (#3362)

fixing the same problem:
We previously put the -isysroot switch only into CPPFLAGS, theorizing
that it was only needed to find the right copies of include files.
However, it seems that we also need to use it while linking programs,
to find the right stub ".tbd" files for libraries.  We got away
without that up to now, but apparently that was mostly luck.  It may
also be that failures are only observed when the Xcode version is
noticeably out of sync with the host macOS version; the case that's
prompting action right now is that builds fail when using latest Xcode
(12.2) on macOS Catalina, even though it's fine on Big Sur.

Specifically, the problem arises for `preadv' and `pwritev' (new in MacOS 11 Big Sur) when building with XCode 12.4 (supporting Big Sur) in MacOS 10.15 Catalina.
