That's just the first patch that happens to touch parse.y.

The port specifically uses bison, so I don't know why you would
force the use of yacc.  And it's a well-known issue.  If you run
parse.y through yacc, it breaks.  You must use bison.

Upstream thinks it's a bug in yacc unless proven otherwise and so
far nobody has figured out the details.
