That is a known bug in HP-UX 11.23 that Gnulib has had a workaround for 
since 2009. See:

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=3a4f1890986aeea9906c261c146bfaab4136a263

I suppose Bison cannot assume that Gnulib is in use, unfortunately.

Does the attached Bison patch fix the problem for you?
