If this token and others are legitimate, please use

See the Autoconf documentation.
The last couple of times this came up, it was due to an old M4. For
example, Autoconf 2.61 requires at least M4 1.4.7.
I updates M4 from 1.4.7 to 1.4.9, and the problem persisted. I use
Autoconf 2.61. (I also updated to Automake 1.9.6.) I checked versions
(using --version) from the console I ran ./bootstrap (as root).
Which is the "official" method to get Bison from the CVS? On
http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=bison
it is suggested
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/bison
co bison
followed, I gather, by
cd bison
./bootstrap
Is this right?
That's what I do.
And this was the method I used, to be sure I am doing the same thing
as you. I run Mac OS X, version 10.4.9 (latest), which usually has
very old GNU software. Are there any other Bison dependencies I might
have overlooked?
