Under "Tools/packages necessary for building GCC", in Prequisites,
yes?
In gcc/cobol/parse,y, we have,
%require "3.5.1" // 3.8.2 also works, but not 3.8.0
David Malcolm reports success with 3.5. Should I change the above on
the strength of his experience, or is a more methodical approach
indicated?
I will add install.texi to the next version of the COBOL patches.

P.S. i am acting on the recommendations everyone posted. Thank you
for the comments, which were mostly very helpful. I'm restricting my
on-list replies unless I have a question, to minimize the noise. I
will have a new patchset ready this week, possibly tomorrow.
