Building PHP with bison versions up to 1.75 works fine, but both
bison 1.875 and 1.875a cause a segfault during the startup of PHP.
Backtrace:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The differences between the parsers generated by bison 1.75 and
bison 1.875a can be seen here

I also brought this up on the bison mailinglist last night, maybe
some kind sould from there can help.
For the time beeing I think it would best to bail out on bison
versions greater than 1.75 in configure.
