Using Bison

I'm working on a port of GCC to a 3b2/300 running SysV R3.0.

The makefile calls bison, the "GNU YACC."  I haven't yet compiled bison
and would like to wait getting GCC running, if this is possible.  I,
therefore, have the following questions:

	1. Is it possible to make GCC by substituting yacc() for
bison()? That is, does bison() have some unique capability required by
GCC and not present in yacc()?

	2. (Especially if 1 is "no")  Does anyone have bison() compiled
for a 3B2 that I could copy?  The cc() is notoriously bad (won't compile
BASH, etc), so I am trying to avoid the frustration of using it.

	3. If #1 and #2 are both "no," can anyone warn me of specific
pitfalls in compiling bison() on the 3B2 under cc()?

Answers by e-mail preferred, but post if more convenient.

Thanks, everyone.
