This problem occurs just on Windows, ie, only Windows must have the
data2inc.exe before run 'make all'?
Sorry... but I never do this... I know, I know... 'stockmarket' right?

My 'prefix' is the same directory, see the script:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
set myversion=%1
set myroot=%cd%
set myFPC=%myroot%\compiler\%myversion%
set mybinutils=%myroot%\binutils
set PATH=%mybinutils%\i386-win32;%mybinutils%\x86_64-win64;%mybinutils%\arm-wince;%myFPC%\bin\i386-win32;%PATH%

cd %myFPC%
make clean all INSTALL_PREFIX=%myFPC% PP=%mybinutils%\ppc386.exe
--------------------------------------------------------------------

I saw now:
The data2inc is in /utils directory, ie, was created today when I ran
'make all'... I did not need to copy data2inc from <trunk>/utils to
<fixes_2_6>/utils

But the error still the same.
