I just finished making and installing perl, patchlevel 27, on my
Microport V/386 ver 3.0e system, including the:
   	yacc perl.y
	mv y.tab.c perl.c

I used the replacement yacc which Microport furnished as one of the
files in the BBS disks I recently bought.  According to the
documentation provided with the disks, the replacement yacc was
compiled with -DHUGE.  It had no trouble with the perl compile.
