I have downloaded the bison tar ball and extracted the files. I was able to add the patches Juan Manuel Guerrero found for the v 1.875 release. However the configure script failed after creating "config.status." cd . && C:/djg/bin/sh.exe ./config.status config.h ./config.status: line 731: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' ./config.status: line 731: `abs_builddir='../../.'' This is very much like the error encountered with the linked files in the gmp package but I have found no way around it. Importing and patching the Makefile from the v 1.875 release did not solve the problem. The makefile reads config.status too and encountered the same syntax error. Going back a step farther and attempting autoreconf failed because it did not like your AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([MP4]). configure.ac:25: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. autoreconf: /dev/env/DJDIR/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1 I ran autoscan which produced a list of undoubtedly useful suggestions for configure.ac but was silent on AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR While I would like to learn to use these tools efficiently I prefer to do it with a project less complex than bison. Juan Manuel Guerrero has requested a copy of the TestSuites. Concattenated and gzipped the file "Test-PKG.gz" is about 34K which is not a bad size for an e-mail attachment.
