Actually, the way Brian (bfox) has the Makefile set up, y.tab.h should
not be removed.  There is a check before the grammar is run through 
$(BISON) if y.tab.h exist, and if so, it is moved to old-y.tab.h.  After
the y.tab.c and y.tab.h have been produced, a comparison is made between
the old y.tab.h and the newly produced y.tab.h.  If they're the same, 
old-y.tab.h is moved back to y.tab.h.  This way, files that depend on
y.tab.h don't have to be remade each time you recompile the grammar, if 
the same header file is produced.

>/usr/bin/mail isn't exactly universal.  Try /usr/lib/sendmail instead.

Or, it could be replaced with /bin/mail ...
