As others said, you're just overflowing the stack of the parse engine.
As no one else said already, watch out for left recusion vs. right
recursion in your grammar, esp. the rules matching long sequences. For more

http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Lex-YACC-HOWTO-6.html
section 6.2, or many compiler textbooks.
