My OS: macOS Catalina 10.15

I git clone emacs HEAD source code from GitHub and `cd` in. 

My build steps:

1. ./autogen.sh
2. ./configure
3. make

And it stop at 

```
Loading /Users/ccQ/Downloads/emacs/lisp/loaddefs.el (source)...
Symbol’s value as variable is void: ctl-x-6-map
make[1]: *** [bootstrap-emacs.pdmp] Error 255
make: *** [src] Error 2
```

Do I miss something? These build steps work fine several days ago.

Thanks for the report.  I tried to bootstrap, and it builds fine.
And indeed I see no ctl-x-6-map in loaddefs.el.  I have no idea
what is wrong.

I had this problem after a `git pull; make' and `cd lisp; make autoloads'
fixed it for me (though AFAIK a fresh clone could not contain a stale
loaddefs.el, so if that's what you did, maybe it's a different problem).

You have a stale loaddefs.el lying around, delete it.

Thanks Stephen, I run `cd lisp && make autoloads`, then my build script work fine now.

Thanks Andreas, I am trying to re-clone whole source code again.

Some other .elc file has stale references to ctl-x-6-map?

Maybe ldefs-boot.el also needs to be refreshed.
