Red herring.  I found the problem, it is embarrassingly stupid, and
Andreas was right.  The fault lies with the official FreeBSD and
OpenBSD ports.

Since bash 4's $() parsing is broken if you build the parser with
BSD yacc, the ports now specify the use of bison by passing YACC=bison
to the configure script.  Running "bison -d parse.y" creates
parse.tab.c rather than y.tab.c, so y.tab.c is never regenerated,
and the parser fix from patch 001 is effectively not applied.

We just need to use YACC="bison -y".
