You must have libtool installed to compile libxml.
Download the appropriate package for your distribution,
or see http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool
make: *** [config/common.mk:91: o/lib/libxml2/configured.x86_64] Error 1

Ran into this trying to build emacs on Debian 13, apt install libtool fixes this. (just a script that's needed by libxml2's build process)

I know it's a pretty simple thing, but wanted to make note of it here incase anyone else runs into it. Was difficult tracking this down purely from the output of make o/editor/emacs/built.fat

Yeah tracking down errors can be improved -- I usually retry with make -j1.
