Summary:                    misleading bison error durring make
Description: 
When trying to use buildroot tool on a really stripped down distribution
(Linux from Scratch 6.1), "make" failed with a message that said bison
needs to be installed.  I checked and I did have Bison 2.0 installed.

Tried again and I noticed that the failure wasn't because of bison, but
rather
/bin/sh: which: command not found
followed by the 'need to install bison' message

I installed which-2.16 and everything proceded.  I am unsure as to why the
bison error was reported.
