This can be fixed by adding a build-dependency on yacc.

It does: should I bother requesting a freeze exception for this?

Indeed. The openbgpd upstream source packages are inconvenient because 
they contain generated files, but then distclean deletes them.
I would like to delete the generated files at build time to make sure 
that I do not make this mistake again, but it is not trivial since the 
Makefile does not exist until configure is run.
Is there an established design pattern for this situation?
