This is the same bug as ID# 2002 but I wanted to report it as also occuring on another system. I installed Bison on my dev server to allow compilation to occur, but I would rather avoud installing bison (an otherwise unneeded tool) on my production server. It was strange having this occur when I've been recompiling since 3.0.6 with no troubles and no bison. (I did note that Bison was required if I were to snag a CVS image and compile a beta, but I have never needed to do so. Perhaps this was a simple mistake in assemblin the 3.0.12 source distribution?)

Actual configure and make errors are:

configure: warning: You will need bison if you'd want to
regenerate the PHP 3.0 parsers.

bison -v -d ./functions/parsedate.y -o functions/parsedate.c
make: bison: Command not found
make: *** [functions/parsedate.c] Error 127

You are right.  We messed up.  We forgot to pre-generate functions/parsedate.c and include it in 3.0.12.
This has been fixed in our distribution generation script and the file will be in 3.0.13
