Simplest is to comment out the reference to libobgtk.la in
libobgnome_la_LIBADD (and make sure that libobgtk.la appears in the
_LDADD of any program that is linked against libobgnome.la).

YACCFLAGS was renamed to YFLAGS in automake 1.2d.  So, having both lines

	YACCFLAGS += -d
	YFLAGS += -d

should work for any recent automake.
