The find_libarary command resolves the library or framework
into an absolute path. In case of system frameworks which are
located within an Xcode-provided SDK this results in the Xcode
path and SDK version being part of the library path.

Because those library paths end up in the exported CMake config
importing curl will fail once the Xcode location or SDK version
changes:

set_target_properties(CURL::libcurl PROPERTIES
  INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/include"
  INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES "lber;ldap;/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX11.3.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/SystemConfiguration.framework;OpenSSL::SSL;OpenSSL::Crypto;ZLIB::ZLIB"
)

A work-around is to link against system-level frameworks with
-framework XYZ. In case of SystemConfiguration we might be able
to omit the lookup-check because we could assume the framework is
always present.

Does this only affect the SystemConfiguration framework or is it relevant to other frameworks, imported the same way?

The `find_libarary` command resolves the library or framework
into an absolute path. In case of system frameworks which are
located within an Xcode-provided SDK this results in the Xcode
path and SDK version being part of the library path.

importing curl will fail once the Xcode location or SDK version
changes:

```cmake
set_target_properties(CURL::libcurl PROPERTIES

Thanks. I also fixed-up the remaining two frameworks. Resulting CURLTargets.cmake:

set_target_properties(CURL::libcurl PROPERTIES
  INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES "${_IMPORT_PREFIX}/include"
  INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES "lber;ldap;-framework CoreFoundation;-framework Security;-framework SystemConfiguration;OpenSSL::SSL;OpenSSL::Crypto;ZLIB::ZLIB;/opt/homebrew/lib/libssh2.dylib"
)
