I believe that you can use Compaq's yacc using the '-N' parameter to
increase the space available to build the LALR tables. I haven't checked

Yes, this is a known issue. I don't use C++ myself, and I don't know

Yes, it is very similar to the one I use, except that I don't specify any
template and I don't enable assertion checking.
