The commit which causes this failure is:
commit c871ed6b50e8e7fbfc2bd6cab2ceeaacd8449d71
Author: Pino Toscano <ptosc...@redhat.com>

builder: make the C index parser reentrant
Switch the lex/yacc parser into reentrant mode, to ease the handling of
parsing-specific data; introduce a new parser_context struct for that,
which is added as extra data to the parser.
This should cause no behaviour changes in the parsing, just no more
global variables used for getting data in/out the parser.
Indeed it uses a feature of bison which was added in 2.4.2 (Mar 2010).
Is there a chance of using a newer version of bison? The alternative
might be to see if reverting that patch still works, and carrying the
revert as a downstream patch.
Rich.
