Don't use m4_divert since it makes m4_divert_push and m4_divert_pop

This directory contains Bison skeletons: the general shapes of the
different parser kinds, that are specialized for specific grammars by
the bison program.

Currently, there are only three supported skeletons:

- yacc.c
  It used to be named bison.simple: it corresponds to C Yacc
  compatible LALR(1) parsers.

- lalr1.cc
  Produces a C++ parser class.  It is still very experimental, and not
  yet supported.  Please, subscribe to bison-patches@gnu.org.

- glr.c
  A Generalized LR C parser based on Bison's LALR(1) tables.

These skeletons are the only ones supported by the Bison team.
Because the interface between skeletons and the bison program is not
finished, *we are not bound to it*.  In particular, Bison is not
mature enough for us to consider that ``foreign skeletons'' are
supported.
