Those files are generated automatically from mapparser.y and maplexer.l
by the bison and flex tools on Unix.  Since you're on Windows you don't
have easy access to these tools... normally the nightly build on the
MapServer web site will contain them and that's what you should use, but
I don't think the nightly.tar.gz that's there now is up-to-date.

The other solution (that's what we always do) is to compile the source
on Unix, and then copy the files mapparser.c, mapparser.h and maplexer.c
from the Unix machine to your PC.  

In case you don't have access to a Unix box, I've placed a copy of the 3
files generated from the latest CVS source at
