Another option was to comment out that part of the Makefile.

Since cfg.cpp already exists in the SVN tree, so there's probably no need to
recreate it with bison.

Curiously the FreeBSD makefile doesn't actually run bison. That's probably an
error on the author's part, though I don't have bison installed anyway. (It's
not part of the FreeBSD base.)
