OCaml uses ocamlyacc and ocamllex for its front-end: see
.../parsing/parser.mly and lexer.mll.
ocamlyacc is very similar to yacc/bison; reuse of the grammar should
be straightforward.
ocamllex is similar to lex/flex, but it supports mutually recursive
rules instead of lex's explicit "start conditions", so you might have
a bit more work if you want to translate it.
