But if you remove it, you force the dependency on yacc or bison when
building GDB, which may not be available on all machines. At ACT, we
have taken a different approach where we have this filed checked in our
repository, and we regenerate it when we modify ada-exp.y. The same goes
for ada-lex.c, generated from ada-lex.l.
The situation is analogus to configure and configure.in.
