MacVim fails to build with +xim variant. See attached log for details.

The log says:

:info:build Domain: DVTCoreSimulatorAdditionsErrorDomain
:info:build Code: 3
:info:build Failure Reason: The version of the CoreSimulator framework installed on this Mac is out-of-date and not supported by this version of Xcode.
:info:build Recovery Suggestion: Please ensure that you have installed all available updates to your Mac's software, and that you are running the most recent version of Xcode supported by macOS.

I'm not sure why Xcode is so fond of involving its simulator when as far as I know nothing that we do in MacPorts should have anything to do with simulators. But maybe you need to resolve this problem for the build to be able to proceed. I'm not sure how you reinstall the simulators. Maybe reinstalling Xcode or the command line tools does it.

Unfortunately, that happened after I upgraded to Monterey (I never learn), so this was a fresh install of Xcode, command line tools and macports, too. Interestingly, MacVim +huge variant still works, just the xim version has this issue.

Have you launched Xcode and allowed it to install its "additional components"?

I tried, still fails to build (I attached the updated log, too).

Heads up, I was just bit by this however I was using the +cscope+huge+ruby25 variants. I'm not sure if the CoreSimulator error message is the most relevant - if you look a little further down the log you'll see a number of operations that fail due to a number of paths not existing (see main.3.log)
