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.
