Looks like bash-3.2-fixes-1.patch touches parser.y; this is what causes the bash build system to try to invoke yacc. Normally bison/yacc are not supposed to be required to build a package; normally the maintainer will run them on their machine before generating the new tarball. I am guessing that if somebody here pulled down the patch and the bash tarball, it wouldn't be too difficult to create a patch file that contains the generated parser.c file also; this may be a good idea. (But then, maybe CLFS has a good reason to avoid touching the generated file? Not sure.)
