I'm sorry that you can't build Emacs.
I doubt the following is going to help, but:

It looks like you manage to build an emacs binary, but then fail
compiling some files.

1) Does the bootstrap-emacs start?

./src/bootstrap-emacs -Q 

2) If it starts, what is the value of `charset-map-path'?

Does the specified directory exist? Is it readable?
Does it contain JISX0208.map? Is it readable?


Failing that, you might try putting a breakpoint in
load_charset_map_from_file in charset.c to see if you can see why it
fails.
