 I can't reproduce this. Could you try running bison by hand to see
 what is the problem ?

+I did attempt to GNU bison standalone but I receive "Broken Pipe" errors.

+However, using /usr/ccs/bin/yacc seems to produce a usable y.tab.c ->
+parser.c file.  Unfortunately, I don't have root access to the box
+(and admin is on vacation).  I'm pretty sure that our admin installed
+the default bison or bison from <sunfreeware.com>.  The machine was
+also probably KickStart'd (or is JumpStart) so the bad bison package
+could have come from there also.
