Here are the steps I just used to recreate the problem:

cd <top_srcdir>
git checkout master
git clean -Xdi
git status --ignored
./autogen.sh
mkdir ../clean
cd ../clean
../<git>/configure
make
make check

All the tests except sync200 run, then make fails with:

make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'test/pacman/tests/sync200.log'.
fatal: making test-suite.log: failed to create test/pacman/tests/sync200.trs
fatal: making test-suite.log: failed to create test/pacman/tests/sync200.log
Makefile:1035: recipe for target 'test-suite.log' failed

I'm guessing your working dir has a copy of sync200.py which isn't
getting cleaned before distcheck does its thing?
