I compile emacs off the emacs-27 branch. On those machines, opening certain
file types results in the above error.
For .js files for instance, the full error is
Eval error in the ‘c-lang-defvar’ or ‘c-lang-setvar’ for
‘font-lock-comment-end-skip’ (fallback source eval - js-mode compiled with CC
Mode 5.34 but loaded with 5.34.1): (error "‘c-font-lock-comment-end-skip’ got
no (prior) value in js-mode (might be a cyclic reference)")

That's great! I've put the amendment into the emacs-27 branch
Makefile.in, as discussed with Eli, so I'm closing the bug with this
post.
