This patch avoids a miscompile using Clang v15 on macOS. The default compiler on macOS was recently upgraded to Clang v16, which appears to fix the problem, and I have not been able to replicate the problem with Clang v15 variants that are available in Linux distributions. So, it might be ok to just ignore the problem. But since v15 installations are likely to hang around for a while in other macOS installations, since the workaround is simple, since Racket users who build themselves are affected, and since I spent a lot of time tracking down the problem, I'm inclined to include a workaround.
For details on the miscompile at it affects Chez Scheme, see clang15-miscompile.zip.
