I can help you resolve that, but I need to see what exactly is going wrong
(e.g., the offending build.log).

I figured it out, or at least fixed it. Cmake changed the macros in some way that Freecad is abusing (copying) to produce cpp instead of cxx files. I don't know why that's hardcoded. I recopied the current cmake macros into the Freecad version changing the hardcoded extension to cpp and it works again.

Thanks,
