Replying to kresdjan:

The workaround posted there is to codesign the app. So this is another instance of #70945.

I had this issue with the emacs-app port on an intel mac running 15.2, and can confirm it is corrected by the codesign command in the thread for homebrew emacs linked above.
sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - -v --strip-disallowed-xattrs /Applications/MacPorts/Emacs.app
I did not see the same problem on a mac with apple silicon. I thought there might be some other configuration difference between my machines causing the issue, but people in the homebrew thread also said that this was only happening on intel macs.
