Hello,

My project was compiling fine with the latest beta. This morning, I download the Xcode 16 RC and get this error (no code change, same machine):

ld: tapi error: malformed file
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/WatchSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/WatchSimulator.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/AppIntents.framework/AppIntents.tbd:4148:254: error: Got empty plain scalar

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Same error if I compile for an iOS 17 or iOS 18 target.

Any idea ?
