No, try to build the official sid package in a sid system (chroot), if you still see the failures then all is good.

That's a good suggestion. But it might be easier to just look at Debian's own build logs for PHP 7.3 and PHP 7.4. It will provide the information that HoaS suggests in a fraction of the time.

The errors indeed match. What do you mean exactly with 'if you still see the failures then all is good' :D :D

Now I'm building from source, I'm a bit confused with the concept of 'sid', 'testing' and 'experimental'. What's the difference between debianized source on stable vs debianized source on sid/testing/experimental? Or is this only relevant from a binary perspective?

If you see the errors for the sid build then it must be okay because the Debian developers saw fit to release it in that state. Check the Makefile, the upstream instructions and debian/rules to find out how to run the tests independently if you're that worried.

Usually none at all.

Nope not worried, the sentence 'if you still see the failures then all is good.' confused me ;), but now it's clear thx!
