still not working for me  with YACC as "bison -y"

so I edited wktparse.y  like this

---------------------

a_point : point_2d | point_3d | point_4d ;

point_2d : VALUE VALUE {alloc_point_2d($1,$2) ;};

point_3d : VALUE VALUE VALUE {alloc_point_3d($1,$2,$3) ;};

point_4d : VALUE VALUE VALUE VALUE {alloc_point_4d($1,$2,$3,$4) ;};

empty : EMPTY  {alloc_empty() ;} ;
%%


---------------------
I got a error free compile

Testing:
    run_regress and run_regress3 are ok

but run_regress2 bombs and causes a server abend on
   select  astext("POINT()'::LWGEOM) as geom;


------------------------

could you add to Makefile


OTHERS=y.output lex.yy.c wktparse.tab.c wktparse.tab.h lwgeom.sql

clean distclean maintainer-clean: clin-lib
	@rm -f $(OBJS)
	@rm -f $(OTHERS}
