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.

Anything that forks() really, really wants to be linked -Bstatic
(or the equivalent) on StunnedOS 4. Not only will your program
start up a lot faster, it will do those fork()s about three times
faster.
