[trunk/#762] build fails in ripper extension

[roberto@…]

Trunk at both #760 and #762 fails the same way inside the ripper extension:

I have bison 2.4 from macports, running on 10.5.5.

I got this too, there are two workrounds, either deactivate the bison port, or manually edit the ripper makefile to use /usr/bin/bison.

Ideally the makefile should specify the bison it needs

It's most likely no longer an issue. Closing.
