Following the instructions from https://github.com/input-output-hk/marlowe-pioneer-program, yet on a Mac M1, running cabal build from within /marlowe-pioneer-program/code main generates 2 errors:

1. Failed to build byron-spec-ledger-0.1.0.0. (According to the build profile, this is the first item to be built.) The log for this error reads:
