Does anyone know a workaround? I'm trying to follow https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/get-started/guide/ and am stuck on this (except trying to use npm not pnpm): "[ERROR] dyld: malformed mach-o image: dyld chained fixups info underruns __LINKEDIT" -- and I apparently need to kill my terminal to get out of this. I tried going back to Node.js 20, but same issue. I tried going back to Node.js 18, and I got: "Wrangler requires at least Node.js v20.0.0. You are using v18.20.8. Please update your version of Node.js." I tried deleting node_modules, deleting package-lock.json, and npm install -D wrangler@3. It struggles, but eventually I was able to install it. Then "npx wrangler dev" and back to the original issue "No bindings found." and "[ERROR] dyld: malformed mach-o image: dyld chained fixups info underruns __LINKEDIT"... and have to kill my terminal. I guess I have to buy a new MacBook?

Some background to this error message: https://medium.com/tokopedia-engineering/a-curious-case-of-mach-o-executable-26d5ecadd995

There are a lot of moving parts in the issue description, you are using C3 to trigger Astro to create a project, then npm run cf-typegen` is running npm that runs Node that runs a Worker that generates typings.

It would be great if we could get a minimal reproduction of this issue.

For example does npx wrangler whoami work on your machine? What about creating the simplest hello world Worker and then running npx wrangler build? Then npx wrangler dev?

Also can you check your setup and see if you have anything unusual installed on your Mac? Perhaps an old version of XCode?
