R devel - May 2024 - config.site settings for M3 Mac typo in manual?

I've just upgraded to an M3 Mac laptop, and I'm working through getting 
the right configure settings to build R.

The Installation and Administration manual says to have this in config.site:

FFLAGS="-g -O2 -mmacos-version-min=11.0"
FCFLAGS="-g -O2 -mmacos-version-min=11.0"

but those give an error on my system, with it suggesting the FFLAGS and 
FCFLAGS version option should be -mmacosx-version-min=11.0.  I don't 
know if that's a typo or a change.

Besides

-mmacos-version-min= is the current Apple option.  However, the gfortran 
build recommended in the manual is quite old and this has apparently 
differed by GCC version (and is not documented in the 'man gfortran' I 
have).

I'll change the manual to mention both forms, and that it is only 
sometimes needed (not on my current setup).
