For me I've only seen failures in the "make install" stage. Sometimes
it redumps at that stage, and then I see a failure.
You're right in that you shouldn't have
`configure-lisp-directory' set
to anything. Do you? (Robert, do you?)
Yes, I do. I don't understand why, though; all I do in my experiments
is set $prefix, and for my in-use XEmacs I don't even to that (see
below).
That would set LISPDIR_USER_DEFINED to something if datadir were out
of whack. But as it isn't specified explicitly, it shouldn't. (And
it isn't for me.)
Here's an excerpt from a recent config.h (for the XEmacs I'm typing
this in, in fact).

This makes no sense to me. I think we probably have a conflict
between our configure.ac code and something that Autoconf is trying to
force on us. Are you using an Autoconf 2.60-generated configure?
