The customizations for R CMD check are in the 'R Internals' manual.
That would have shown that you needed
setenv _R_CHECK_COMPILATION_FLAGS_KNOWN_ "-mmacosx-version-min=10.13"
It is too late for 4.0.0 but in any case I would be reluctant to include
that in the 'known good' flags. What is not at all clear is which
compilers support it (even on macOS) -- it seems to be in the LLVM
version of clang but undocumented (like so many clang flags).
