I've followed the steps to install v8 and the libv8 gem. After that, I am unable to successfully install therubyracer 0.12.3. The mkmf.log chokes when trying to validate the v8.h header and throws out an unknown type name-error.
My environment:
- Ruby: 2.6.3
- OSX: 10.15
- xcode-select: 2373
- libv8: 3.16.14.19
- v8:v8@3.15 (via Homebrew) brew info v8@3.15 = v8@3.15: stable 3.15.11.18 (bottled) [keg-only]
- g++: Apple clang version 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.17)
I've worked through the suggestions here. Anyone got a suggestions?

`configure': By using --with-system-v8, you have chosen to use the version
(Libv8::Location::System::NotFoundError)
of V8 found on your system and *not* the one that is bundled with
the libv8 rubygem.
However, your system version of v8 could not be located.
Please make sure your system version of v8 that is compatible
with 3.16.14.19 installed. You may need to use the
--with-v8-dir option if it is installed in a non-standard location
