We had a Bison build failure:

I’ve addressed it by a hack in c55fae452032aa4b1b63406983e9abdf70adc957.

Bah, that’s another thing in Cuirass that we kind of fixed in Git but we
still need to reconfigure I guess.  Ricardo, is that correct?

For evaluation failures, I simply browse /var/log/cuirass.log…  Until we
have something better, we should maybe just publish that file.

Thanks,
