There's nothing wrong with that syntax AFAICS.  Furthermore, my copy
of Postgres takes it just fine (both 6.5.2 and current sources).

I suspect you compiled with a buggy version of yacc or bison.  Postgres'
grammar is large and complex enough that it tends to expose problems
in vendor-supplied yaccs :-(.  Try getting a recent GNU bison (let's
see ... I have 1.25 installed here, it's probably not the latest)
and rebuilding.
