Make Problem - `DEFAULT_ALIGNMENT' not integer constant

[Joseph Maxwell]

Hello,

I am running an SGI Indigo2 platform, O/S IRIX version 6.5.22f and 
installing some GNU programs requiring an updating of ancillary files. 
One of which is the Bison suite for PostgresSQL integration.

The system is currently running "m4 (GNU M4) 1.4.10"
and GNU Bison version 1.25 installation attempt of bison-2.3
stack limit is reset to 100MB

The configuration (./configure) seemed to run fine to completion

make
ran until terminating

=>
    ---

   ---
           then mv -f ".deps/hash.Tpo" ".deps/hash.Po"; else rm -f
   ".deps/hash.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
           if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I..    -I/usr/local/include 
   -g -O2 -MT obstack.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/obstack.Tpo" -c -o obstack.o
   obstack.c; \
           then mv -f ".deps/obstack.Tpo" ".deps/obstack.Po"; else rm
   -f ".deps/obstack.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
   obstack.c:83: error: enumerator value for `DEFAULT_ALIGNMENT' not
   integer constant
   *** Error code 1 (bu21)
   *** Error code 1 (bu21)

Using gmake after distclean, same error seems to occur
GNU Make 3.80
