Hello,

I had a problem with -Werror 3 or 4 days ago with liboconfig.
There is no prototype for yyparse() and compiling oconfig.c complains.
Compilation fails when using -Werror.

I have not understood why a bug (introduced by my and fixed by me) in configure.in that had nothing to do with liboconfig or -Werror raised this issue. However, maybe someone should have a look on liboconfig and yyparse.

About my bug : I used $SAVE_CFLAGS to save the CFLAGS somewhere and restore it somewhere else. I changed the name of my variable and the issue disappeared. Note : there is SAVE_CFLAGS somewhere else in configure.in and it work. I don't know why.

About yyparse and yacc : parser.y compiles well with bison -y. I failed at compiling it with byacc (on Redhat 6).

Well, if some happy hacker wants to play with C/yacc code, enjoy this issue. IMHO, it is not very important.

Regards,
Yves

While the goal of building warning-free is noble, erroring out
on warnings by default makes the build too brittle with ever-
changing warning behaviour in newer versions of gcc.
