when I work on NetBeans the first thing I do: Clean the branch I choose as basis and do a build of the full IDE. Then I work on the individual modules. I suspect, that in your case you never build the nbbuild project, which defines the class you are missing. If you don't want to build the whole codebase, you can try if running "ant bootstrap" from the base directoy is enough to fix your issue.
