I've found the problem. It is due to a conflict between libxul-dev
(version 1.8) and xulrunner-dev (version 1.9), which are both installed
on my machine. Actually xulrunner-dev is needed, but Liferea tests 1.8
first. The fix in Liferea is to test the most recent version first
(i.e. libxul-embedding before xulrunner):

Concerning the liferea Debian package, if I do "apt-get source liferea",
"cd liferea-1.4.26", change the above line in the configure script
directly, then "dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc", the failure disappears.
