Bison 2.0 test suite on Mac OS X.3.8

[Hans Aberg]

I got many failures when running bison-2.0 test suite on Mac OS 
X.3.8. It could be due to that other software supplied with this OS 
is old. Which scanner (Flex/Yacc) and compiler (GCC), including 
versions, does this test suite expect to run?

I also found a bug in the test suite, when the path name of directory 
contains a space. Then the test suite files to put in suitable 
escapes "\ " for these spaces when attempting to make a new directory.
