Although I am not a hacker, I think you just need to upgrade
bison to version 1.75 if you want to build from CVS. The ecpg
interface is broken with version 1.35 of bison.

Let's say ecpg grammar broke bison 1.35. :-)

I've fixed the INSTALL and installation.sgml docs to say you need bison
1.50 or later (it used to say 1.28 or later). Is there anyplace else we
should point this out?
