The problem is not in making bison, but rather in using its
parsers: bcopy is used in bison.simple and in the same file,
alloca needed a __GNUC__ hook.

I recently installed bison, then flex on hp9k300 HPUX 6.x using gcc.
The single problem I found was in making flex's parser using bison:
All compiles went fine, but at link time, two symbols were still
undefined: bcopy and alloca. These I traced back to parse.o;
the references were from 'bison.simple.'
Here is a patch that worked for me -- though it would be nicer to
keep system dependencies out of such ``template'' files... maybe
an automatically generated separate version for people who use
memcpy instead of bcopy? Otherwise, every time a SYSV user uses
a bison-generated parser, they have to remember to -DUSG or link
in a BSD library.
