Error during Installation

Dear sir/madam,

I am trying to install the PostGreSQL 7.3.4 version. However, when I
execute gmake, I get the following error message:

Preproc.c:5560:  fatal error: maximum table size (32767) exceeded.

I have no idea what table it is talking about and how to resolve the
problem.

Please help.

Thank you and best regards,

/Amar

You need a newer bison.

Although really you shouldn't need bison at all, if you are building
from a distribution tarball --- preproc.c should come already built
in that case.  Maybe the file timestamps got messed up?  Or did you
pull the source from our CVS server?
