Red herring. I found the problem, it is embarrassingly stupid, and Andreas was right. The fault lies with the official FreeBSD and OpenBSD ports. Since bash 4's $() parsing is broken if you build the parser with BSD yacc, the ports now specify the use of bison by passing YACC=bison to the configure script. Running "bison -d parse.y" creates parse.tab.c rather than y.tab.c, so y.tab.c is never regenerated, and the parser fix from patch 001 is effectively not applied. We just need to use YACC="bison -y". -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber na...@mips.inka.de
