bug#71975: fails to build emacs from master

[John ff]

I regularly pull the latest emacs from maser source, and compile.
n the last few days this has not worked.  First error was missing
makefile.in but I have failed to find a way to compile.
I tried make bootstrap which has solved many such problems.

I cannot reproduce this with today's master branch.  Suggest to run
"git clean -fdx" followed by "git pull" and a full bootstrap.  I'm
quite sure there's something wrong with your cloned repository, since
the error message about filelock.c makes no sense.  If nothing else
helps, make a fresh Git clone.
