I was under the impression that if your program simply made use of GNU software, you could still make it closed-source, and it was only if you used a GNU code itself (such as a library) when actually compiling the application that it would need to be open-source.

Take care,

now that you brought it up which would you recommend lex/yacc or
bison?

flex/bison of course. Not only they are better; moreover, they are
standard part of Mac OS X ;)

Unless you want to sell your application. My understanding is that
bison "infects" your app with the GNU license, unless they've gone to
LGPL without letting me know personally. :-)
