Thanks for the confirmation; I've applied it to master now.

Ouch, doing so you've masked an actual bug -- Automake aims at
supporting older bison (at least back to 1.875), as well as
non-bison yacc programs.

This is just because the autoamke testsuite does not strive too hard
to find the pkg.m4 file; I wouldn't worry about it, since in conclusion
the test would be skipped anyway due to the lack of a Vala compiler.
