Right, well, I tried again with...
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/xemacs-21.4 --with-gif=yes
--with-sound=none,native --with-mule --without-canna --without-wnn
--without-wnn6 --datadir=/usr/local/xemacs-21.4/share
--statedir=/var/lib --infodir=/usr/local/xemacs-21.4/info
--mandir=/usr/local/xemacs-21.4/man --with_menubars=lucid
--with_scrollbars=lucid --with_dialogs=athena
--site-includes="/usr/include/db2"
...but the result was the same.

No, I just wanted to follow the Debian conventions.
FWIW, I just tried compiling on a Debian GNU/Linux x86 sid system
too (configuration with the same command I used on potato, shown
above) and the compilation ended with:
gcc -c -g -O3 -Wall -Wno-switch -Winline -Wmissing-prototypes

Looks like Makefiles haven't been written to support parallel
compilation. Just for the heck of it, I removed --with-mule from
configuration and didn't use parallel compilation and I got exactly
the same errors as for the first time with potato.
