Actually, the only language that requires bison is java (pure parser).

C, C++ and objective C are usually happy with byacc, though gcc things
otherwise, and you will have to convince the Makefile that yacc IS
bison.

(Usually with a x-* fragment that sets BISON=yacc, and with an env
variable that also says YACC=yacc, which takes care of autoconf tests).
