Executable built with Bazel on MacOS Monterey with XCode 13.2 throwing seg fault #14206

Description

@demorgan104

Description of the problem / feature request:

Bazel will build a simple "Hello World" executable that is throwing a "Segmentation fault: 11" error.

Bugs: what's the simplest, easiest way to reproduce this bug? Please provide a minimal example if possible.

The build file is having the following content:

      load("@rules_cc//cc:defs.bzl", "cc_binary")
      cc_binary(
          name = "main",
          srcs = ["main.cpp"],
          visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
      )

Main.cpp:

        #include <iostream>
        int main() {
            std::cout << "Hello World";
            return 0;
        }

What operating system are you running Bazel on?

MacOS Monterey (version 12.0.1)

What's the output of bazel info release?

release 4.2.1-homebrew

Have you found anything relevant by searching the web?

I have found something similar for earlier versions of Apple Clang.
In those cases anyway the program will through segmentation faults during the execution. In my case I will get a segmentation fault before the program is executed. (basically on anything)

I am thinking this behavior might have something to do with the default flags from the default Bazel rules for macos.

Any other information, logs, or outputs that you want to share?

I tried re-installing xcode tools, I tried cleaning bazel cache.
