According to <http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/manual/html_mono/bison.html#Conditions> it would appear the special clause is placed into Bison's output file. Having never used Bison I can't be sure. If you download the Bison source and look at the file examples/calc++/calc++-parser.cc you'll find the following beneath the GPL license grant: > /* As a special exception, you may create a larger work that contains > part or all of the Bison parser skeleton and distribute that work > under terms of your choice, so long as that work isn't itself a > parser generator using the skeleton or a modified version thereof > as a parser skeleton.
