According to https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2019-06/
msg00013.html , we better use `%define api.pure full`, available since
bison 2.7.
According to https://packages.debian.org/search?
keywords=bison&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all, Debian oldstable
has bison 3.7.
Our configure requires at least version 2.0 ( https://
opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/configure.ac?
r=e4b24dba07c54c1957df8c42a19392bd01fc01e2#12230 ), which seems quite
old now.
Would bumping bison baseline, and replacing the problematic
instruction,be OK at this time?
I have studied this before and the problem is macOS, which comes with
bison 2.3. See, for example,
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10778905/why-does-my-mac-os-x-10-7-3-have-an-old-version-2-3-of-gnu-bison
I don't know, if we should ship our own bison for macOS in LODE, then.
