Sorry, I hve been off for a while ...

The build log looks different from your initial report. There you have
quoted:

| Loading ...
| Loading ...
| Loading /auto/insbu-cnstools/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp...
| Cannot open load file: trampver

Now, the  trampver problem seems to be over, because there is another
error:

| Loading vcursor...
| Loading /auto/insbu-cnstools/share/emacs/site-lisp/tramp...
| Cannot open load file: 
/auto/insbu-cnstools/build/emacs-21.4/lib-src/fns-21.4.1.el

Did you change something? Are you sure, the last report is still
related to Tramp? As Kai wrote, fns-21.4.1.el is related to
autoloading; it should list autoloaded functions per package. Maybe
you need to perform something like 'make bootstrap', or so.

Best regards, Michael.
