Why not `./configure --with-ns` as suggested in ./nextstep/INSTALL, which is
referenced by both ./INSTALL and ./nextstep/README?

Are you running the ./nextstep/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs executable
from the terminal?
Or did you run `make install` after `make`, and are running the
/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs executable from the terminal?
Does it help to run the executable with the -Q option?
Can you re-run ./configure and post the output?

I suggest:
make distclean
./configure --with-ns
make
sudo make install
I always log the output for future reference e.g.
./configure --with-ns 2>&1 | tee configure.log
