Bison and flex depend on m4, correct? So, it's exactly the same. The
current policy is that we don't care about HJL until we need to. The
bison and flex pages are still in the repo, just not tied into
chapter05.xml.

Hmm, it looks like someone removed the old commented entries for bison
and flex in Ch.5. Oh, that was our work in alphabetical. I guess if we
ever need to get the HJL dependencies back in, the Ch. 5 order will
have to be reworked since m4 would have to move to the beginning (or
somewhere else before bison).

Did you ever find out if the diffs in cc1 were related to the m4 removal?
