I don't know what is happening on your computer, but as you see the error 
is AFAIU unrelated to 7c8a131984, something goes wrong during the build. 
I just tried 1231a601eb (on Debian bookworm), and it worked as expected.

What's the exact "make" command you type?  Can you try "git clean -fdx" 
followed by "make" (without any other arguments, except -j<some number>)?

Yes. If I run just "make -j`nproc`" after "git clean -fdx", it builds
fine. Following is my observation now,

# bad
git clean -fdx
make -j`nproc` configure="--prefix=$HOME/.local" install

# bad
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local
make -j`nproc` install

# good
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local
make -j`nproc`
make install

It appears that the "install" target has some issues with "-j`nproc`" if
the emacs is not already built.

This should now be fixed on master.  Can you please check, and tell us if 
it's indeed fixed?

(Note that "make install" works, but is not recommended.  It is better to 
do "make && make install", to actually proceed with the install only if 
the build succeeded.)

Thanks.. now it is working... sorry for the delayed reply. My home paint
work taken all the time last week.

Ok. I didn't know that. I will change my build script.

No worries!  I'm therefore closing this bug.
