 New Comment:

indeed, our exclude check only check major+micro version, so the current 3.0 in the PHP-5.6 branch
won't allow 3.0.2 bison for example.
let me fix that.

This bug still exists as of today using PHP-5.6 git branch.
Bison 2 is not available in debian stable anymore. https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=bison
According to the docs, 3.0.4 should work, but configure does not accept it.

The bison check excludes bison 3.0, but the PHP manual at http://php.net/manual/en/install.unix.php
says of the bison requirement for building 5.6
bison:
PHP 5.6: 2.4 or later, excluding 3.0 only (3.0.1 and later are OK)

Is this true?  If it is, then the bison test needs to be extended to accommodate
major.minor.whatever, so that the exclusion is specific to 3.0.  If not, the documentation needs to
be changed.

Even PHP 5.6 requires bison 2

Okay, thanks. The code works, I use Bison 2.7.1 now.

Use PHP 5.6, or install an older Bison:

wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/140087283/libbison-dev_2.7.1.dfsg-1_amd64.deb
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/140087282/bison_2.7.1.dfsg-1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libbison-dev_2.7.1.dfsg-1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i bison_2.7.1.dfsg-1_amd64.deb
