Description:
------------
I'm building PHP 7.4 from the git repository : fresh clone, and short compilation script (see below). 

I've been bumping the following error message for 3 weeks now : 
/Users/php/bin/php-src/Zend/zend_language_parser.h:205:2: error: #endif without #if
#endif /* !YY_ZEND_USERS_php_BIN_PHP_SRC_ZEND_ZEND_LANGUAGE_PARSER_H_INCLUDED  */

I tried to disable all extensions, buildconf --force, make clean, script/dev/genfiles without success. I also tried to build right after a clone. 

PHP 7.3.6 builds (simple checkout), but 7.4 can't pass make. 

I'm using bison 3.4.1, OSX Mojave

Test script:
---------------
git checkout PHP-7.4; git pull
make clean
./buildconf --force
env YACC=`brew --prefix bison`/bin/bison ./configure \
    --disable-all
make -j`sysctl -n hw.logicalcpu_max`
make test


Expected result:
----------------
Compilation succeed :)

Actual result:
--------------
In file included from /Users/php/bin/php-src/Zend/zend_ast.c:23:
/Users/php/bin/php-src/Zend/zend_language_parser.h:53:18: warning: extra tokens at end of #include directive [-Wextra-tokens]

Hello. Thanks for the report. It's the macOS version of make most likely here...

What is the output of this on this machine?

  make -v

I also upgrade to the latest command line tools (from yesterday), and I keep running into the same version and error.

Yes, confirmed. It's the special version and build of Make for macOS 3.81 that causes this. Has been identified via appended patch above.

Until this patch is confirmed and merged in the php-src we can now also bypass this using the usual GNU Make:

  brew install make

and adding this on the first line of the ~/.bashrc file (or ~/.zshrc and equivalent):

  PATH="/usr/local/opt/make/libexec/gnubin:$PATH"

That will give you something like this:

  make -v

Which is equivalent to:

  gmake -v

macOS is not catching up with some tools versions out there (such as this strange make 3.81 prehistoric version released in 2006) due to their licensing lockups and annoyances.

Compiled using 'gmake' instead of 'make', following the installation of 'brew install make' and it all went well.
