Bisection requires to know the last commit where the bug didn't exist.Not the *last* commit, that what bisection is for to find out. It just requires *any* commit where the bug didn't exist.Right, but that's unknown as well here.Usually the first step in bisecting is to find some distant commit where the bug did not exist.Sure, but given the time it takes to reproduce the problem, that could take much longer than what Martin is doing now. And if you go far enough into the past, Emacs will stop building successfully, so you are stuck there.
IIUC the problems happens once a day or so. I'd try to see if it still happens with HEAD~2500, HEAD~5000, HEAD~7500, HEAD~10000. All of them build successfully, and doing this doesn't cost anything.
