[vlc-devel] [PATCH v2 03/17] apple: build: export nm in host tools

[Alexandre Janniaux]

nm is used by some buildsystems to detect underscore prefixing, for
instance via ffmpeg --nm command. `nm` on linux is also not necessarily
able to open mach-o binaries, while darwin/clang variant returned by
xcrun can.
