This means your build does have support for modules.

Returning to the original error:

    ELC      src/emacs-module-tests.elc

  In toplevel form:
  src/emacs-module-tests.el:32:1:Error: Loading file 
/sources/emacs/lisp/emacs-lisp/ert.elc failed to provide feature `mod-test'

line 32 of emacs-module-test.el is this:

  (require 'mod-test mod-test-file)

So one problem could be that mod-test-file is somehow not calculated
correctly:

  (eval-and-compile
    (defconst mod-test-file
      (substitute-in-file-name
       "$EMACS_TEST_DIRECTORY/data/emacs-module/mod-test")
      "File name of the module test file."))

So maybe EMACS_TEST_DIRECTORY is incorrect, you your Emacs tree
doesn't have the test/data/emacs-module/mod-test directory, or there's
no mod-test.so file in that directory?
