Thank you. I got it to work.

I modified the Wiki:
  https://wiki.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus_on_MacOS_X#Step_1._Download_Xcode.
To indicate that old Xcode must be trashed before installing new Xcode
11.1 on MacOSX Catalina 10.15

Then I followed the instructions at the above link in the section:
  Install Lazarus
as follows:

cd ~
mkdir -p bin/lazarus
cd bin/lazarus
svn checkout https://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/branches/fixes_2_0 laz_fixes
// wait some time ....
cd laz_fixes
make LCL_PLATFORM=cocoa CPU_TARGET=x86_64 bigide
// wait some time .....
open startlazarus.app --args "--pcp=~/.laz_fixes"
