I haven't installed it yet, but I think PCCTS (Purdue Compiler Construction
Tool Set) apparently includes a C parser. It can also create ASTs pretty
easily (according to the manual). Unfortunately, the grammar is not compatible
with Lex/YACC.

[PCCTS has a sample C parser that makes parse trees and throws them away,
not a bad place to start if you don't demand pure lex and yacc. -John]
