Some good news, at least a starting point.

The problem lies in the generation step
ftpd/ftpcmd.y --> ftpd/ftpcmd.c
I did the experiment of bringing in a successfully
compiled source tree from GNU/kFreeBSD to OpenBSD.
After "make distclean" and "configure --with-wrap",
the full source content is indeed compilable also
on OpenBSD!
However, if I take a "bootstrapped-only" source tree
and run "make distclean", the compilation will halt
at "ftpd/ftpcmd.c". Read this file name once more!
Next, I move to the directory imported from GNU/kFreeBSD,
followed by distclean, renewed configuration, and also
manual removal of "ftpd/ftpcmd.c". Now also this source
tree failes to compile: an error appears at the already
mentioned place.
Lesson learned:
1) "ftpd/ftpcmd.c" is never removed by the target "distclean";
thus is never regenerated by Bison, once the file already is
present.
2) The transformation of "ftpd/ftpcmd.y" is sufficiently
distinct for Bison present in GNU/* and FreeBSD/OpenBSD
for the header files to be a source of problems.
Analysis continues! Best regards for now,
Mats
