The upstream code for WebKit provide fixes for compile errors we currently see with XCode 12, e.g.: https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/master/Source/WTF/wtf/PointerPreparations.h has ALWAYS_INLINE const void* getVTablePointer(T* o) { return __builtin_get_vtable_pointer(o); } ^^^^ The same file in the OpenJFX repo has a `void*` return type instead of a `const void*`, which gives an error.
