Line 819 of cal-hebrew.el in Emacs 24 is diary-hebrew-birthday.
This calls calendar-absolute-from-gregorian, which uses the `abs'
function. I assume it's something to do with that, but I have no idea
why that function should even be called during the building of Emacs.
There are few calendar callers of the `abs' function.
Another is calendar-dst-find-data. This is actually called when cal-dst
is loaded, so an error from there during building would make slightly
more sense.
But why does (abs 8.0) return an arithmetic error at all...?
