It is rather an yylval points to a wrong
place (0x4d003b), so dereferencing it
fails.
Try:
(gdb) b real_yylex
(gdb) r
Breakpoint 1, real_yylex (yylval=0xbfffee78) at lex.yy.c:1598
1598		if ( yy_init )
(gdb) bt

Maybe optimisation? What gcc do you have?
Try different versions like 2.91 (aka kgcc
if it is a RedHat distro), 2.95 or 3.x.

Try running dosemu under a memory debugger
(I use njamd for that) - maybe it is a
memory corruption somewhere.
Or maybe upgrade your bison/flex?
