Are you sure your clock is set up correctly?
It builds here just fine and the important difference is that bison is not run
on c-parse.y.  It shouldn't be - the spec file patches c-parse.c and therefore
it should have later timestamp than c-parse.y, furthermore it then also
touch(1)'es c-parse.h and other generated files.
GCC 2.96-RH similarly to other old compilers aren't compatible with contemporary
bison releases.
