 TA> wrong, so I checked:

what is happening is: you are building in the source tree, instead of
using  the Build script.

in the source/texk/web2c directory, there's a synctex subdirectory.

and at the same time the synctex binary is being created in the same
directory with the same name.

so building in the source tree doesn't work currently because of this.

build using a Build script or manually create the Work sub-directory in
the source directory, and configure/build from there.
