>Description:
See below for what I believe to be 100% reproducible on amd64 (bash-4.0.33, bison-2.4.1).  Note the same command being run over and over again.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ time for i in 1; do echo $(echo 1); done
1

real    0m0.001s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.001s
$ time for i in 1; do echo $(echo 1); done
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `do'
$ time for i in 1; do echo $(echo 1); done
1

real    0m0.001s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.001s
$ time for i in 1; do echo $(echo 1); done
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `do'
$ time for i in 1; do echo $(echo 1); done
1

real    0m0.001s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.001s
$ time for i in 1; do echo $(echo 1); done
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `do'

>Fix:
When building bash, use the default setting for $YACC (YACC='bison -y')
