Hi Pádraig,

Just in case:

$ for i in /usr/local/stow/bison-3.*

I had forgotten that there is a 2.3 sitting on my system, and indeed:

$ /usr/bin/bison gnulib/lib/parse-datetime.y
gnulib/lib/parse-datetime.y:555.9-16: syntax error, unexpected identifier, 
expecting string

It chokes on `%define api.pure`.

According to NEWS, this syntax was introduced in 2.4 (2008-11-02).

I have tried to install 2.7 on my system, but I can't (because of
portability issues of vasnprintf that were not covered by gnulib at
that time).  I cannot even install 3.0.

Thanks a lot for checking.
The info in https://bugs.gnu.org/44739 must be incorrect,
and we've two counter checks to it now.

cheers,
Pádraig
