So I changed all the references in Makefile.in to the YY-files which refer to *.tab.* to *_tab.*. This should not change any behaviour, since those files are only generated files. This seems reasonable, although '-' is more standard for GDB source files than '_', and I would install the patch that way. Just out of curiosity, why isn't it a problem that the generated filenames are longer than 8 chars?
