Right -- well, I trust your judgment on something like that more than
my own.   The version in question is "bison (GNU Bison) 1.875c".

When I was digging around, the definitions all pretty much came back
with the one I'd used, but I do understand your concern.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news   :-)   If you have an alternate fix that
you'd like me to test, I'd be happy to do so;  I've still access to the old
machine on which the problem report was 1st bounced to me from.  If I
tried to fix it in any other way than what I did, I'd probably hurt 
myself...

Paul.
