The aspersion on that page seems unfounded. It's getting difficult to
find a mainstream UNIX that has not adopted gcc as its standard
compiler, but bison-2.1 builds with gcc/g++ in "-ansi -pedantic" mode,
as well as with Intel icc "-ansi" and lcc (which is bare bones ANSI),
so I expect it is portable to pretty much any ANSI compiler.
