Rust bindings broken on Mac Sonoma 14.5. #221

If you try to use blst as a dependency on the newer mac OS 14.5 you get an error not 4 byte aligned

To reproduce run:

sudo cargo build --release

With blst as a dependency in your cargo.toml. If you are running on the above OS you will get an error.

Github runner runs macOS 14.5 and tests pass. So the first question you should ask is what's the difference between your computer and presumably vanilla MacOS installation in the github CI farm. I mean it sounds more like a problem with your installation than with blst itself. This is not to say that making adjustments in blst is out of the question, but the root of the problem has to be identified... The error shouldn't have occurred, because all assemblers were observed to align common symbols at their sizes, and since the size is specified for the variable in question, it should be aligned accordingly... Besides, ARM ldr is specified to be able to handle misaligned address, so what's up with the error to begin with?

Found the issue. It was with another repo thanks for checking and proving info @dot-asm
