------- Comment #1 From Brandy Westcott (RETIRED) 2003-09-15 00:52:18 0000 ------- 
This error is caused by modern versions of bison rejecting very old (and now 
deprecated) syntax in egrep.y 
 
Adding the following line to the cscope ebuild is a proposed fix: 
 
	sed -i -e "s:={:{:" src/egrep.y 
 
With this change both cscope-15.3 and cscope-15.4 complile ok using all 
versions of bison currently in the portage tree.
