It is not related to lex or yacc. Some users will want to run OpenSM on
machines with limited resources and will like to strip it in size, when
QoS is not planned for use, some 50+K could be stripped:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   5820	     21	      0	   5841	   16d1	opensm-osm_qos.o
  16722	     25	     96	  16843	   41cb	opensm-osm_qos_parser_l.o
  21319	     28	     24	  21371	   537b	opensm-osm_qos_parser_y.o
  10782	     21	      0	  10803	   2a33	opensm-osm_qos_policy.o

I'm not sure what default should be, but to have such
--enable/disable-qos config option would be useful.
