Try from a shell outside Emacs.

What does "git status" say in the repo where you build?

One more thing to try: remove all the *.elc files in the source tree,
and try building again.

No, please use "M-x report-emacs-bug RET", which will send the report
to the bug tracker and also to the bug-gnu-emacs mailing list.  Then
let's take it from there (assuming building a fresh clone still
crashes or errors out).  The right place to discuss Emacs bugs is via
the bug tracker.  All the core maintainers subscribe to the bug list.

Thanks.
