This is probably not a bug but perhaps you could
address the issue anyway.  While trying to istall 
the bison parser generator we get an error message
after running the configuration and then typing 
"make install".  The compiling process works for:
LRO.c,derives.c....untill it gets to this message

"cc -c -g -DXPFILE=\"/usr/local/lib/bison.simple\" -DXPFILE= ..sameline
\"/usr/local/lib/bison.hairy\" ./files.c ./system.h .....sameline
:13 can't find include file strings.h
* Error code 1
STOP "

I have checked the files which were mentioned in 
the lines proceeding the error message and they 
were all contained in the bison-1.19 directory which
were created by tar, but there is no strings.h.  Is
bison supposed to use a strings.h which should be in
the tarred file or is it supposed to use a strings.h
which should already be on our system?

Your attention to this would be greatly appreciated
                thanks mwibbels
