Just something a bit odd. I am working on a toolchain with OpenBSD 7.8 on an old DEC Alpha. Seems to run fine but I need to build anything I need from source. Of course.

GNU patch configure seems a bit odd with regards to bison :


checking for bison... bison
checking for bison 2.4 or newer... 3.8.2, bad


Well that is weird.

centauri$
centauri$ which bison
/opt/bw/bin/bison
centauri$
centauri$ /opt/bw/bin/bison --version
bison (GNU Bison) 3.8.2

So "bad" is a bit strange there.
