JUCE 7.0.10: cp vs ln in Xcode project

With JUCE 7.0.10, the exported Xcode project has this in the Plugin Copy Step in its AU target:

ln -sfhv "${TARGET_BUILD_DIR}/${FULL_PRODUCT_NAME}" "$HOME/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/"

This creates a symlink in the Components directory. But the plugin does not load when it is referenced by a symlink, at least not in Ableton.

When I go back to JUCE 7.0.9, the Plugin Copy Step uses cp instead of ln, and that works so I am back in business.

+1, Logic can’t find the plugin.

Reaper can’t find the AU but VST3 and VST2 are fine.
