Prerequisites

1) GCC with libgccjit enabled

For that you need to compile gcc (duh). I edited Homebrew's gcc formula:
diff --git a/Formula/gcc.rb b/Formula/gcc.rb
index 1bd636d496..03ad124218 100644

     # Xcode 10 dropped 32-bit support
(easy way to apply this is to cd into /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-core and
run pbpaste | git apply - after copying the diff into clipboard 😄)
(or whereever is your Homebrew library set up)
2) Bunch of dependencies


giflib
jpeg
libtiff
gnutls

And XQuartz, because GCC is not able to parse Objective-C dialect changes
what Apple has done for now and thus Apple Cocoa support is not available. (See: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2019-08/msg00056.html)
3) Source

Clone https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs and checkout feature/native-comp branch
2) Building

Here's the script I used (note to adjust package versions if needed):
libs=(
    /usr/local/Cellar/gcc/9.2.0_2
    /usr/local/Cellar/giflib/5.2.1
    /usr/local/Cellar/jpeg/9c
    /usr/local/Cellar/libtiff/4.1.0
    /usr/local/Cellar/gnutls/3.6.10

    # Required by gnutls
    /usr/local/Cellar/nettle/3.4.1 
    /usr/local/Cellar/libtasn1/4.15.0
    /usr/local/Cellar/p11-kit/0.23.18.1
)

export PATH="/usr/local/Cellar/gcc/9.2.0_2/bin:${PATH}"

export CC="gcc-9"
export CPP="cpp-9"
CFLAGS=""
LDFLAGS=""
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=""

for dir in "${libs[@]}"; do
    CFLAGS="${CFLAGS}-I${dir}/include "
    LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS}-L${dir}/lib "
    PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}${dir}/lib/pkgconfig:"
done

export CPPFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
export CFLAGS
export LDFLAGS
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH

./configure \
    --prefix="${HOME}"/gccemacs \
    --with-nativecomp \
    --without-ns
Save it into build.sh
Then run:
sh build.sh && make bootstrap && make install
And result is in ~/gccemacs. Add ~/gccemacs/bin into PATH and start experimenting with el native building
