Follow-up Comment #1, bug #51678 (project octave):

If you delete those two files, they will be rebuilt and their timestamps will
be updated. This will cause a chain reaction of other things to be rebuilt and
relinked, but the build will no longer continue calling YACC.

This is a standard side effect of our move-if-change rules. If the
prerequisite is updated, but the _contents_ of the output don't change, we
don't update the timestamp to avoid unnecessary rebuilds.
