Do a "make install" in the build system, and install it in the LFS base?
And don't copy anything to the DL CD?

One potential problem is we're currently running the latest _stable_
version of bison, so I'd have to install the latest _beta_ release.

Are we brave enough to install a beta release of bison in the LFS,
considering it is probably used to compile many of our packages?

It may be safer to create a build script to copy (or patch) the new
/usr/share/bison/yacc.c file into our current release of bison.

What do you think?
