All dependencies installed. This issue affects cl-sdl2 as well. Any clue how to get around this?

Does this have to do with the fact macos has deprecated opengl for their metal api since macos 10.14? Maybe that's why your sbcl can't find opengl. https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/GraphicsImaging/Conceptual/OpenGL-MacProgGuide/opengl_pg_concepts/opengl_pg_concepts.html

I don't think so. It's "deprecated" but not removed; OpenGL.Framework is present in /System/Library/Frameworks

I believe that this is cffi's issue, which was fixed some time ago.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/cffi/+bug/1906982. The fix was released quite some time ago, so this should be fixed by upgrading cffi. This probably would include upgrading quicklisp distribution which can be done via (ql:update-all-dists) or (ql:update-dist "quicklisp")
