The problem appeared in php-5.4.19 and was not there in php-5.4.18. I could build it just fine from complete source tarball. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-01 15:35:25] mike@php.net If you build release tarballs, the bison version should not matter, though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-01 15:29:19] pascal at nobus dot be apologies for my previous post, I was on the wrong server # flex -V flex version 2.5.4 # bison -V bison (GNU Bison) 1.35 I'll try to get a later bison-version ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-01 15:21:54] mike@php.net Looks like you have to use bison2.4 - 2.7 to build from a source checkout. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-01 15:05:47] pascal at nobus dot be For the slackware-OS: (also php-5.4.20 has this problem) # flex -V flex 2.5.33 # bison -V bison (GNU Bison) 2.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
