We recently packaged the new version 1.50 of bison. It builds fine, and works well when native parsing. If used with the '-y' (yacc compatibility switch) it will fail in places where the traditional yacc does not. The Opensource community is split on whether this is a bug in 1.50 or not.
Beware that some package builds will succeed with the older bison 1.35 package, but will fail with the newer bison 1.50 package. A short (but not comprehensive) list follows. This problem does not affect the OpenPKG 1.1 release, because the new bison 1.50 package is not included in it. The new bison 1.50 package is found in ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/current/SRC/.
