    Description

      [macOS]: The wrapper scripts generated by qmake do not have the DYLD_* variables that are set on the calling terminal nor from the script itself, so the generated DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH is not passed through either.

      This is specifically a problem when you have libraries in DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH which need to be found when running the tools, for example a custom build ICU which QtCore is depending on.

      Attached is an example of two scripts, startme.sh is used to call the uic_wrapper.sh (which is a modified version of the one generated by qmake, which replaces the uic call with printenv to illustrate the problem).

      The output I get from the attached example is:

      TERM_PROGRAM=Apple_Terminal
      SHELL=/bin/bash
      TERM=xterm-256color
