I don't care much, as long as the parser doesn't get bigger (e.g.
some day, someone will suggest supporting comments and so on, and then
it'll be time to use code we don't have to maintain ourselves).

I'm not sure they can be fixed without adding a dependency on
a specific version of automake (which is not suitable when supporting
more than one OS).
