'make maintainer-clean' doesn't clean up leftover .sc-start files from
one failed syntax check, even if you resolve the syntax check in the
meantime.  I don't know why the .sc file is getting bundled into the
tarball, but it should not be; and that would possibly explain the error
you are seeing.  There may be further improvements needed on gnulib's
side (hence the cc), but for now, I think the workaround for you is to
just manually delete that .sc-start* file prior to running distcheck.
