Or maybe we could get rid of ylwrap and assume yacc/lex support the
'-o' option. After all:
- the yacc- and lex-generated files are automatically distributed,
so only the maintainers should be expected to regenerate them;
- the sytem yacc on OpenBSD and NetBSD (not surre yet about FreeBSD,
will check) support the '-o' option as well; and their lex too,
since its flex
- supporting proprietary yacc and lex should be low-priority IMHO.
Might this be something to consider for Automake 1.13?
