You can just use your objc magic inside the curly braces... All you have to do is rename your file to *.ym instead of *.y
Then all your files will be named *.m
To call upon yacc with objc code is currently a no go. Therefor you still need to call the basic yyparse methods, or add a special directive for the bison compiler to generate push/pull methods. Those can be created and deallocated at will and will run next to each other without any problems.

I do see that bison can generate C++ instead of C. Does anyone know whether there is any version of yacc or bison that has been modified to generate Objective-C? Or if there is any other parser generator available that can generate Objective-C.

That means that could be Objective-C code - you'd only need to change the file extension from .c to .m to compile it. As long as the emitted code is the only Objective-C and therefore not required to be parsed by YACC, I reckon it ought to work.
