Paul, Many thanks for the clarifications.
After going through all that everything is just fine from my side as well!

In my makefile YACC is overridden by 'bison' which ultimately does not see any '-y' flag (!), such that the redefined YACC and the built-in rule need not be compatible with each other. Since they aren’t, a user-defined rule is required for '%.c: %y' (option (c) below). > Basically it's up to you to either (a) use a standard-conforming "yacc" > command, or (b) modify the YACC variable so that it contains a standard- > conforming yacc command, or (c) rewrite the rule to use a different yacc > command. > Or of course you can use option (c), as you've done, and rewrite the rule to > use whatever output you like. BTW: Did you have by any chance some time to have a quick look at my example? I would be curious if there are other sweet and clean solutions for it probably using some deep make subtleties I am not aware of? Many thanks again for the links, in particular, and sorry for the noise.
