I wasn't aware of any strong dependency such as this one (and I actually
still have not understood what the problem is, and how problems with
AC_SUBST are related to Bison here).

The only I see in gnulib which is a *.y is lib/parse-datetime.y.
And I don't see anything special in it that would require any special
version of Bison.

Just in case:

$ for i in /usr/local/stow/bison-3.*
do
echo "$i..."  
$i/bin/bison lib/parse-datetime.y
done
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.0.5...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.1...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.2.4...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.3.2...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.4.2...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.5.4...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.6.4...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.7...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.7.1...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.7.2...
/usr/local/stow/bison-3.7.3...

I think I have not understood the question, sorry :(  What exactly
happens here?  Is configure properly rerun each time, without cache?
Why are we talking about Bison?
