Was that enough to make perf build for you? I also ran into this error:

util/libdw.c: In function ‘libdw__addr2line’:
util/libdw.c:204:25: error: implicit declaration of function
‘inline_node__clear_frames’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
  204 |                         inline_node__clear_frames(node);
      |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Which from a quick check was fixed by picking up 674dea094ef659 ("perf
srcline: Introduce inline_node__clear_frames()"). But then I ran into
yet another error:

util/session.c: In function ‘perf_session__deliver_event’:
util/session.c:1619:14: error: ‘evsel’ undeclared (first use in this
function)
 1619 |         if ((evsel->core.attr.sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_CPU) &&
      |              ^~~~~
util/session.c:1619:14: note: each undeclared identifier is reported
only once for each function it appears in
