I haven't touched yacc or lex since college, either, but there is JavaCC
for creating a Java language parser.  I don't know much about it, or if
it consumes .y sources, but converting from .y to whatever JavaCC uses
might be easier than writing your own parser.

The JPython project uses JavaCC, AFAIK.
