We should avoid calling bison with -y since the parser simply isn't POSIX yacc compatible. I found a trick somewhere in WWW to do that (one has to substitute AC_PROG_YACC) but lost the reference again. But after doing so, there was a problem with file names I failed to resolve. Hence why I resorted to just passing -Wno-yacc. Cheers, Phil
