Last I tried it, development Gforth worked fine on Asahi Linux on a
MacMini with M1.
As for MacOS, unfortunately on ARM MacOS has a reduced-functionality
mmap() (compared to Mac OS on Intel, and also compared to Linux). I
spent a day last summer trying to work around that shortcoming, but
time ran out before I had the solution, so now MacOS has to wait until
I can find some more time to spend on it. The workaround will also
slow MacOS down compared to Linux.
One thing I wonder about and may investigate eventually is if
https://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/gforth/Snapshots/current/gforth.bin.x86_64-apple-darwin20.2.0.tar.xz
works without workarounds. If so, if it be slower or faster on the M1
compared to the ARM version with workarounds.
I expect that the dynamic linking you are looking for will not be easy
when using an Intel binary on an ARM Mac.
