Lowering the severity as this problem seems to be a misconfiguration on your
side.

I can't reproduce this issue.

What is the output of the following command:
grep ^BINDIR /etc/rkhunter.conf{,.local}

What is in your $PATH?

Did you have the exact same configuration with previous version (1.3.8-5)?

rkhunter is a shell script, hence cannot be 'badly compiled'.

Cheers,
