FWIW, I just tried to build on a 5.3-RELEASE-p2 machine, and got the
same error.

Palle mailed me off-list and asked which versions of bison and m4 I'm
using.  On both machines, it's:

acc at mybox:~> portversion -v bison m4
bison-1.75_2                =  up-to-date with port
m4-1.4.1                    =  up-to-date with port

I was able to build 8.0.1 (not 8.0.1_1) just fine using the older
bison.  What's changed that requires the new version?
