Ah, good catch. I guess we need double square brackets again in the .m4 file.

Does changing this in common/m4/gst-parser.m4 fix it for you as well, after
running autogen.sh again?

-  bison_version=`$BISON_PATH --version | head -n 1 | sed 's/^.*) //' | sed
's/[a-zA-Z]*$//' | cut -d' ' -f1`
+  bison_version=`$BISON_PATH --version | head -n 1 | sed 's/^.*) //' | sed
's/[[a-zA-Z]]*$//' | cut -d' ' -f1`
