Bison will stop adding a semicolon at the end of the actions (as announced
in the release 2.5):
- foo.y:2.22: warning: a ';' might be needed at the end of action code
- exp: "num" { $$ = $1 }
- ^
- foo.y:2.22: future versions of Bison will not add the ';'
+ foo.y:2.25: warning: a ';' might be needed at the end of action code
+ exp: "number" { $$ = $1 }
+ ^
+ foo.y:2.25: future versions of Bison will not add the ';'
Like other GNU packages, Bison will start using some of the C99 features
for its own code, especially the definition of variables after statements.

Empty rules (i.e., with an empty right-hand side) can now be explicitly
marked by the new %empty directive. Using %empty on a non-empty rule is
an error. The new -Wempty-rule warning reports empty rules without
