In trunk r. 117982 I find this error in the build log:
...
make[2]: ingresso nella directory "/tmp/emacs/lisp"
Compiling mail/rmailmm.el
In toplevel form:
mail/rmailmm.el:78:1:Error: Symbol's value as variable is void:
rmail-spool-directory
Makefile:284: set di istruzioni per l'obiettivo "mail/rmailmm.elc" non
riuscito
make[2]: *** [mail/rmailmm.elc] Errore 1
make[2]: uscita dalla directory "/tmp/emacs/lisp"
...
The build of trunk r. 117969 does not show that error.
Ciao,
Angelo.

I have also seen this, but a bootstrap build solved it.

This is bug #18466, and it certainly isn't new.

Some years ago we've been told on this list to not write bug reports for
failures of fresh builds (as these would get fixed immediately anyway)
but report the issue on this list. But maybe my memory is failing :-(
Anyway, what's the recommended way when I see a thing like Angelo?

I believe I said "don't report obvious lisp compilation bootstrap fails
that affect all platforms anywhere without waiting a day or two",
especially not if hydra already flagged it. I don't recall saying to
report bugs to the development mailing list (rather than opposite, many
times over).

PS this issue will have gone away again after 117983, so following the
above advice would have negated the need to "report" it.
But if you want to report it anywhere, report it to the bug list.

If I write to this list is because I do not think they are "strictly" bugs.
For example, in this case, I didn't see the the error in recent trunk as
rev. 117969 and, after a bootstrap, in rev. 117983. So, from my point of
view (just an user), I have some difficulties to consider it as a bug.
Increasing the bugs number for this kind of report could be even worse
that sending to this list. Pherhaps we are on the "boundaries" and
sending report here or to the BUGS list is matter of taste
(alternatively, if one is pessimistic [BUG list] or optimistic [HERE]).
But, maybe, I am wrong... Sorry!
Ciao,
Angelo.

Don't try to second-guess things like that, just make a bug report.
