   Unfortunately yacc always writes its output in y.tab.c and optionally
   y.tab.h and y.code.c. This breaks when pmake runs multiple yacc's in
   parallel [e.g. in the gdb directory]. Should we add a flag to specify
   the output filename prefix?

yes.  `-o file' of course.  i'm surprised it isn't there currently.
