I'm unable to find dyld_info (formerly dyldinfo) in the expected Xcode/Command-line tools.

I understand from an 8/12/22 commit message in the swift source tree (which uses it) that dyldinfo was to be renamed to dyld_info per rdar://98570807.

I have current XCode 14.0.1 (14A400) and updated command-line tools, but I can't find dyldinfo or dyld_info anywhere. I do find all the other tools mentioned in the docs, so I don't have other reasons to think my install is bad. (I'm on x86_64.)

Where is dyld_info normally installed?
Can anyone verify it came with the latest XCode?
Is there a workaround for me to obtain it?

Thanks!

AFAICT dyld_info is part of macOS, not part of the Xcode toolchain. It should be present on any version of macOS 12.

What version of macOS are you testing on?
