I tried building in several different directories which were not
symlinked. 

Further datapoint:

I managed to build emacs inside a docker container on the host,


FROM fedora:34
RUN dnf -y install make gcc  gtk3-devel libXpm-devel gnutls-devel giflib-devel ncurses-devel texinfo libjpeg-turbo-devel findutils
RUN dnf -y install git # why is this neeed for the build? Error: (file-missing "Searching for program" "No such file or directory" "git")

COPY emacs.clean emacs
WORKDIR     emacs
RUN make -j32 # i have 32 threads...

this managed to build, and i can also run the resulting emacs inside the
container.

fedora:34 is the same as on the host, which should rule out that there
is something weird with fedora:34 as such.
