grpc-tools broken on mac OS?

See original GitHub issue

Problem description

When I try to generate static code with grpc-tools, I run into this error:

dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: ____chkstk_darwin
  Referenced from: /Users/mariehoeger/Documents/repos/ProjectBrasilia/src/Workers/NodeWorker/node_modules/grpc-tools/bin/protoc (which was built for Mac OS X 10.15)
  Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

  Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

Reproduction steps

Run command:

grpc_tools_node_protoc --js_out=import_style=commonjs,binary:./src/channels/cloudEvent/grpc/static_codegen/ --grpc_out=grpc_js:./src/channels/cloudEvent/grpc/static_codegen/ --plugin=protoc-gen-grpc=`which grpc_tools_node_protoc_plugin` cloudevent.proto

with grpc-tools@1.9.0 and mac OS High Sierra

Environment

OS name, version and architecture: mac OS High Sierra (10.13.6)
Node version: v12.16.3
Node installation method: nvm
Package name and version: grpc-tools@1.9.0

Additional context

I got this to work with grpc-tools@1.6.6. I landed on this version by looking at the last version that was here https://node-precompiled-binaries.grpc.io/

I also installed with npm i grpc-tools, not npm i -g grpc-tools and am running the command grpc_tools_node_protoc from an npm script
