+ portability: fix several issues with M4 subprocess.
+
+ M4's output pipe was not being drained upon fatal errors during
+ scan_skel. As a result, broken-pipe messages from M4 were seen
+ on at least AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, and RHEL4, and this caused a
+ failure in the test suite. The problem was that, on platforms
+ where the default disposition for SIGPIPE is ignore instead of
+ terminate, M4 sometimes saw fwrite fail with errno=EPIPE and
+ then reported it. However, there's some sort of race condition,
+ because the new test group occasionally succeeded.

+ Fix handling of yychar manipulation in user semantic actions.
+ The problem was that yacc.c didn't always update the yychar

+ portability: use -DGNULIB_POSIXCHECK.
+ Reported by Eric Blake. See discussions at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-09/msg00008.html>
+ and
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2009-10/msg00108.html>.
+ * HACKING (Release checks): Suggest -DGNULIB_POSIXCHECK.
+ * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add all the printf modules
+ suggested by -DGNULIB_POSIXCHECK. Add realloc-posix as
+ suggested by -DGNULIB_POSIXCHECK for gnulib's own vasnprintf.c.
+ (excluded_files): Remove m4/printf-posix.m4.
+ * tests/atlocal.in (LIBS): As for LDADD in src/local.mk, add
+ lib/libbison.a so gnulib libraries can be linked.
