Hi bison is the GNU version of yacc. It supports extra semantics and new functionality. Without seeing the errors, I am unable to assist further.
flex (the "F"ast Lexer) is the GNU version of lex. My wild guess is that the windows-compiled (cygwin?) version is perhaps updated to support the additional functionality that Bison/Flex support. One such difference is the support of POSIX regexps, e.g.: [:alnum:] versus the traditional [a-zA-Z0-9] Hope this is of some benefit.
