I'm really a newbie. Maybe I missed the whole point but stay sure you don't need flex and bison to parse this. It's _really_ simple, you need little code of little complexity, to get something of flexible that can be used for long time.
If you don't trust me I can write a little C library to parse this just for provide a proof. This isn't only simple to parse, but even simple to generate, that's an important point.
