I've tried to build master (ec4dabc2381df6d803bb6ff4c294ef0d374857b4)
under Linux/x86_64 (Debian/unstable) with ./configure --with-cairo,
but the "make" output terminated with:

If this was not a freshly cloned repository, did you try "make
bootstrap"?

Have you tried a "make bootstrap"?

Indeed, this solves the issue. Shouldn't this be detected
automatically via dependency tracking?
(I usually do a "make distclean" first, but I think I forgot.
Not sure whether this is related here.)

We don't really have any dependency tracking for Emacs Lisp files. It
would be a great addition, if someone develops that, I think, because
such problems are quite frequent during active development.

"make distclean" is not enough, AFAIR, because it doesn't delete *.elc
files (again AFAIR). You really need to remove all the *.elc files in
such cases, because the problem is with stale macros that are expanded
into the *.elc files.

It's a complicated problem, though -- basically if any file that defines
a macro/variable changes, then all .elc files that depend on it should
be recompiled. Which means that if you make a trivial edit in files.el,
then that would trigger a compilation of absolutely all .elc files,
which would make development pretty much impossible.
We would have to arrange the Lisp sources in a very different way to
dependency tracking to be practical.
So instead people who pull Emacs have to say "make bootstrap" once in a
while. It'd be nice if it were possible to have the makefile output
"Did you try 'make boostrap'?" if it fails, but that's apparently not
something make allows.
Anyway, closing this bug report.

How about putting these explanations about the .elc files in
"Makefile.in" (together with the other comments)?

It seems that "make boostrap" will do a rebuild with a default
configure, thus shouldn't be used if one needs configure options
(I find a configure variable impractical due to quoting and working
poorly with various shell advanced features). I suppose that
"make maintainer-clean" or "make extraclean" should be sufficient.

"make bootstrap" should use the same config options as the previous
./configure you ran.

OK. There was no indication in Makefile.in:
# make bootstrap
# Removes all the compiled files to force a new bootstrap from a
# clean slate, and then build in the normal way.
