Subject: yacc vs. bison

I just discovered that buildin rc with bison 1.14 on a sun elc sunos4.1.1
results in a smaller executable than buildin it with yacc.

And for those who want to build a rc for running scripts:
The fastest executable I built was linked with
	gcc -O -n ...
and without readline lib. Since -n implies -Bstatic, I assume this is due
to the inefficient implementation of the shared library stuff on sparc2
cpus.
