I think you run the various "*clean" targets in the wrong directory,
and you already have an old build in
'/home/data1/protected/Programming/Software/emacs/', which is the
parent directory of the one where you are trying to build a different
configuration.

Please do:

  . create a new, empty directory, outside of the
    '/home/data1/protected/Programming/Software/emacs/' tree
  . clone the Emacs Git repository into that new empty directory
  . create a subdirectory without-all and configure and build Emacs as
    you tried before

If the above doesn't work, please post the complete build transcript,
but only one, please.
