Re: Syntax Error with Bison 1.875

[Akim Demaille]

| I upgraded my Bison from 1.28 to 1.875 a few days ago and so far have
| run into two cases where I get "syntax errors" when running in yacc
| mode.  The two programs are during "make install" of xfree and make of
| ispell.  Switching back to 1.28 I can do both operations just fine.  I
| downloaded 1.75 and I get the same thing as 1.875.  My guess is
| something was "fixed" in Bison that broke some things in other
| programs.  How do I go about fixing it.

| This is the output I get when making ispell :
| 
| + cc -O2 -mcpu=athlon-mp -march=pentium3 -mmmx -msse -mfpmath=sse -Wall -I .
| -c makedent.c
| makedent.c:2: warning: Rcs_Id' defined but not used
| + yacc parse.y
| parse.y:676.3: parse error, unexpected "|"
| parse.y:705.8-706.30: invalid $ value
| parse.y:705.8-706.30: $3 of tion_stmt' has no declared type
| parse.y:705.8-712.47: invalid $ value

Hi,

Bison is asking that the rules be ended either by `;', or `|'.  Look
around line 676 for a missing `;'.
