Then the build simply fails at:

+ /usr/bin/make installer
perl version.pl version version.mk '< := @'
/usr/bin/make -r installer-local
make[1]: Entering directory `/dar/build/syslinux-4.04-pre14'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `installer-local'.

set -e ; for i in libinstaller mtools linux extlinux utils; do /usr/bin/make -r -C $i all ; done
make[1]: Entering directory `/dar/build/syslinux-4.04-pre14/libinstaller'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `../core/ldlinux.bss', needed by `bootsect_bin.c'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/dar/build/syslinux-4.04-pre14/libinstaller'
make: *** [installer] Error 2
