Follow-up Comment #2, bug #59972 (project findutils):

I just encountered this error trying to build on macOS Big Sur (11.6).

I tracked down the error message to these other two GNU projects:

* https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg09939.html
* https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2021-01/msg01355.html

The Emacs thread referenced a patch that fixed the OP's problem:

https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/commit/7c9841b8428edfbc369eccf54788b668d4b27328?branch=7c9841b8428edfbc369eccf54788b668d4b27328&diff=unified

I manually patched in the changes to cdefs.h and *make install* completed.
