traditional in the Bison manual, and Bison has other input

discarded `.field' in `$-1.field'. The previous fixes were less
restrictive about where a dash could appear in an identifier, but

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.
