Yes, that did introduce a bug. I'll address that in a separate email.
I'll also CC: to Zhen Wang, who has reported a similar problem.

But the code merely does this:
#if defined (__STDC__) || defined (__cplusplus)
int
yyparse (void)
#else
int
yyparse ()
;
#endif
So evidently __STDC__ isn't defined on your platform. Can you find
out why that might be? Is there some option you have to give to cc so
that it defines __STDC__, as every standard compiler must? Perhaps
'configure' needs to be modified into doing that.

Thanks for reporting this. What's the problem with the examples
directory? I couldn't tell from the rest of your message. Is it the
same problem as the one discussed above?
