I would suggest to use older versions for now, latest versions are not yet tested 
and can create issues.

We might add it to master, I'm using 2.7 all-time here, too.

Then we need to fix the code for 2.6+. Right now it fails for ZTS with 2.6.1 
already.

The PHP test suite runs fine with (hand built) bison 2.7 on Oracle Linux 5.9.

The fix for https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64503 means that 2.3 and earlier are no longer usable.  I verified this, as did laruence (on IRC he retracted his email that claimed it was usable).  Rasmus is OK with dropping support for 2.3 (see http://news.php.net/php.internals/66810).  These older versions should be removed from Zend/acinclude.m4

Note in https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64503 Remi says 2.4.1 is OK.  I haven't seen any results for 2.4.
