Grrrrr, things are never that simple...
Somehow, I missed rebuilding this file (.y.c doesn't depend on
Makefile.in), so I missed this breakage:
cp-name-parser.c.tmp: In function 'cpname_parse':
cp-name-parser.c.tmp:1990: warning: implicit declaration of function 'xfree'
The fix is to include "defs.h" instead of "config.h" directly, as the
other .y files do. While doing that, I hit the fact that there's an
external parse_escape function in utils.c, declared in defs.h that now
colides with the static cp-name-parse.y:parse_escape. They're mostly the
same, but this file it also buildable as a standalone program, so I just
renamed the one in cp-name-parser.y. The xfree issue is described in the
patch itself.
Phew, hope the attached (already commited) settles it. I made sure
that `make test-cp-name-parser' still links the standalone
test program.
