This commit:

​https://github.com/aria2/aria2/commit/ba3396f7bb210b53fb940f274a0622ad9799545c

makes aria2 assume Apple builds will always have access to the Security framework.

But it appears they have access to the Security framework only if AppleTLS is enabled.

​https://github.com/aria2/aria2/blob/a8cb271b044230f38085be7fc185c30eb1f52d36/configure.ac#L1103

So -- some work will need to be done to make the MacOS builds work without AppleTLS enabled, if that is desired.

There is already a patch for < 10.7 that might be broadened out to make this happen.

I'm always open to PRs for older OS versions that I don't have access to myself.

[kencu (Ken)]

In this case , the failure is on even the newest systems.

I’m just not sure if this is worth fixing.
