MacOS has its own versions of Bison and Flex that are packaged with the OS. These versions pass the tests done by configure but will fail when the user tries to build.

Current workaround:
Install Homebrew package manager
Execute brew install bison flex

Everything should work from there. But we should have some way to catch for an invalid version BEFORE the user tries to build...
