Re: bison-1.875: build feedback: DEC Alpha builds with native compilers

[Paul Eggert]

Nelson, I'm following up on the problem with Bison 1.875 and test case
#34 on Alphas that you reported in early January, e.g.:
<http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2003-01/msg00008.html>.
Here's a quote from that email:

We think we may have found and fixed the problem.  Certainly there is
a bug due to an uninitialized variable that matches the symptoms you
reported.  If you're still interested in it, can you please try the
patch enclosed in

Thanks.
