I once got the same problem. You get it when you first build emacs from
the main directory, and the run make-package from the mac directory, I
think. The first step inserts /usr/local/share/emacs/21.3.50/.. in a
couple of variables.
I now do the configure and if necessary a make bootstrap in the main
directory and then run make-package as:
./make-package --no-conf --self-contained --build-in-place
