Parallel building devel/bison fails. There is a race where the build tries to run the newly compiled bison for its --help output but doesn't wait for the binary to actually be available.
This is one of these cases that espie@ grumbles about, because it is due to a problem in our make(1) that treats "/path/to/file" and "file" as distinct targets. Anyway, here's a fix if we want it. It also adds an upstream fix so the path to bison isn't embedded in the generated documentation. OK? No, let's wait for the prophesied make fixes that will be forthcoming any year now?
