Re: Small bug in postgres' ./configure script and invalid

Yes I already downgraded back to 2.5.4a, I thought some compilation
issues with postgres' devel version were caused by an out-of-date flex.
But they were all due to an out-of-date bison (version 1.75 and later on
1.875 made it compile, while 1.35 failed).

Although it is still a bug in de configure-script ;)
