I just upgraded a different machine to Catalina. This one didn't have Xcode or homebrew installed beforehand, so I installed Xcode, its command-line tools, and homebrew's gcc. Then I built Sage and it worked. I have now installed a bunch of other homebrew packages relevant to Sage, and the build is going fine. (I had to log out of the machine, so I had to interrupt the build, but it had made it past givaro and ntl, which were sticking points for another user in this thread.)
Thinking back on the other machine I upgraded, that one was also relatively "clean": no old Xcode or old homebrew stuff. So for those who are having problems, I wonder if uninstalling Xcode first would help. Maybe there are some other old libraries which should be removed before installing the new Xcode.
