This gist is the node@16 formula from https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/212c5526b18165ac6922c2b7016b995b82b5bdc8/Formula/node@16.rb with the patch from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/133232/files#diff-2fb78802847284b4179c668046bc3f7445c28f5266cfde23a7cf77b793489c3f appended.

Download the gist as node@16.rb and install with

brew install ./node\@16.rb

It fixes the following error when trying to build nodejs v16 on macos High Sierra:
