I'm installing the following on HEAD and branch-1-8.  

I've worked on a patch to build parse.h, parser.h and lexer.c in
the source directory; unfortunately this means that any
user-reference to these files must be changed from xxx to
$(srcdir)/xxx.  This is especially worrisome for parse.h,
because it is usually listed in BUILT_SOURCE.  It is not yet
clear to me whether fixing such reference automatically is
possible.

        * tests/lex3.test, tests/yacc6.test: Require GNU Make.
        Fixing these for BSD Make requires invasive changes (lexers and
        parsers must be built into $srcdir, and--most annoyingly--all
        references to parse.h must be changed to $(srcdir)/parse.h).
        Report from Mark D. Baushke.
