Indeed lex and  yacc are needed for OpenSM build now. However different
tools can be used (lex, flex, yacc, bison, byacc, etc.). Also some
distributions are using other than bison and flex tools. Will this patch
limit tool set (and break build on distros which doesn't have bison and
flex)? If yes, could this be done using generic requirements?
