-The lib/getdate.y file requires GNU Bison 1.875 to rebuild lib/getdate.c. Not

+The lib/getdate.c file was last generated from lib/getdate.y using GNU Bison
+version 2.0. Earlier versions of GNU Bison may be usable for this purpose,
+though non-GNU YACCs and versions of GNU Bison earlier than 1.875 are known to
+break on this file. Not having a working GNU Bison should not stop most builds
+unless the lib/getdate.c file is actually missing, perhaps deleted via
+`make maintainerclean'.
