And never used by the NS (or Mac) variant. It's just there.

Make does:

        cp -f ../src/emacs 
/Users/pete/Quellen/Emacs_CVS/emacs-28.0.90/nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs
 

So actually a copy of /usr/local/bin/emacs exists inside the application bundle 
and is loaded, and certainly used to execute emacs. Lsof does not show that it 
opens from the /usr/local tree more than the PDMP file. And if it would run 
/usr/local/bin/emacs then it would launch an X client:

After having built and installed the NS variant I can simply 'make distclean', 
configure for X11, 'make' and 'sudo make install' and have two working variants 
of GNU Emacs on my Mac. With dumping it has become a bit complicated. One 
reason is that the NS variant cannot be built when configure'd 
--with-dumping=none:

        gmake -C ../nextstep all
        gmake[2]: Entering directory 
'/Users/pete/Quellen/Emacs_CVS/emacs-28.0.90/nextstep'
        gmake -C ../src emacs
        gmake[2]: *** No rule to make target '../src/emacs.pdmp', needed by 
'/Users/pete/Quellen/Emacs_CVS/emacs-28.0.90/nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/libexec/Emacs.pdmp'.
  Stop.
