Follow-up Comment #1, bug #27609 (project make):
This is how the default rule for building YACC files in GNU make has always
been, for 20-odd years. From the GNU make manual section "Catalog of Rules":
Yacc for C programs
n.c is made automatically from n.y by running Yacc with the command
`$(YACC) $(YFLAGS)'.
Lex for C programs
n.c is made automatically from n.l by running Lex. The actual command is
`$(LEX) $(LFLAGS)'.
Creating a statically-named "y.tab.c" from "foo.y" was an inane idea in the
first place: what happens if you have two different YACC files that generate
different parsers in the same directory? Ditto, of course, for lex.
I'm not sure what we can do about this.
