Yeah, I was talking about exactly that. I'd really expect -o to *also* 
change the header name. Everything else produces non-deterministic 
behaviour with multiple .y files and -jX.

We should change the .y macros to just use -o and change base to accept 
the "new" (sane) behaviour. Everybody else who needs portability should 
use POSIX rules and no -jX
