Expo 51 + React Native 0.74.5 + New Arch Enabled: "Failed to install react-native-bignumber"

[peterpme]

Reproduction steps:

• npx create-expo-app@latest -e with-new-arch
• npm install react-native-bignumber
• npx expo prebuild --clean -p ios
• npm run ios
• watchman watch-del-all
• npm run start --reset-cache

Versions:

• expo 51.0.31
• react-native-bignumber 0.2.3
• react-native 0.74.5

System:

• XCode 16
• Sequoia 15

When I disable the new architecture, everything works properly.

I've created a repo as well (with the ios directory committed): Base Repo URL

Thank you!

@Szymon20000 can you take a look at this? 🙏

This library does not support the new architecture... yet
