Re: bison 1.875 variable vs. function name clash: accept

Sure, but generally it's a weak symbol, so if the user's program
defines 'accept' the user's definition wins.  This is required for
conformance to the C Standard, as I mentioned in my previous message.
Why isn't this working for you in your environment?  Perhaps if you
try compiling my little test program we can find out why.

Other people have built Bison for HP-UX 11.00 and 11.20; see
<http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Gnu/bison-1.875/>.  So perhaps
this problem depends on HP-UX version.  What HP-UX version are you
using?
