"Otto Moerbeek, an OpenBSD developer, found the bug through the process of
testing a new implementation of malloc, a general purpose memory allocator. A
user alerted him that on the Sparc64 hardware platform and using the new
malloc,
compiling large C++ projects would sometimes fail with an internal compiler
error.
"He found that the bug was in yacc, a parser generator developed by Stephen C.
Johnson at AT&T that has been a standard part of Unix since the 1970s."
As a historical note, UNIX 6th edition was the basis for John Lions' famous
commentary on the UNIX source code, completed in 1977.
