We should be shipping the postgres source tar files with flex/bison
already run on the parsing files. It sounds like at least one slipped
through the cracks. Tom, is this up your alley?

As an aside, HPs are not known for their smooth compatibility between
releases, at least in my household. Any suggestions on general
solutions to build problems on new releases would be appreciated; I
recall that every release has required at least some tweaks to get
working again. I'm not sure that any of your particular problems are
in this category, but I thought I'd take the opportunity to whine
about it ;)

Thanks for the feedback.

- Thomas
