It's the codename of the latest Debian release (aka "Debian 12").

Your favourite web search engine might have helped...

The error messages you see are about features that are *only* present in the headers of Pd-0.54 (or newer).
So the compilation process of ELSE find the wrong headers.
This could be because you haven't properly "install"ed Pd-0.54, or because you have both the headers for Pd-0.54 and some older (incompatible) version, and the older ones take precedence for whatever reason.
It's it's the latter, you should uninstall the old headers (eg "apt remove puredata-dev", if you have also installed the puredata package from Raspbian and your Raspbian is new enough (I'm afk right now so please check yourself)).
If it's the former, you should properly install Pd  (using 'make install').

Your error is, that ELSE doesn't do any compile time check for the Britain of the Pd headers, and just assumes that everything is there.
Which I think is a bug in ELSE in any case.
