10 Bison can work with pre-1.4.3 distributions of GNU m4 if they are
11 sufficiently patched, but if you encounter a bug with an older
12 distribution and report a bug we will probably suggest that you
13 upgrade to 1.4.3 as the first step in trying to fix it.
14
15 Please send bug reports to <bug-bison@gnu.org>. Please include the
16 version number from `bison --version', and a complete, self-contained
17 test case in each bug report.

19 If you have questions about using Bison and the documentation does
20 not answer them, please send mail to <help-bison@gnu.org>.
