Details:

I'm attempting to build Octave from the Hg repo, on both the stable and
default branches, and am getting a compilation error.


  YACC     libinterp/corefcn/oct-tex-parser.h
/Users/janke/local/repos/octave-BUILD/libinterp/corefcn/oct-tex-parser.yy:53.9-16:
syntax error, unexpected identifier, expecting string
make: *** [libinterp/corefcn/oct-tex-parser.h] Error 1


This is on macOS 10.13.5.

Configure command:


../octave/configure --prefix=/tmp/test-octave --disable-readline


Looks like this was introduced recently; I was getting a different build error
a couple days ago when working on https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?53627.
