> WTF is bison?  And why do I need it to compile the snapshot?

  Bison is GNU's version of yacc, the compiler-compiler.  You
need it because critical parts of the compiler are written in
yacc scripts (ie, those .y files).  Bison comes with the gcc
package.  You should compile it before trying to make gcc, if
you don't already have it.
