+
+ * data/glr.c (yyresolveLocations): Remove bogus YYASSERT that the
+ state before an empty RHS is always resolved here. Only the location
+ of that state is guaranteed to be resolved, and that's enough. This
+ fixes the remaining bug reported by Derek M. Jones in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00027.html>.
+ * tests/glr-regression.at (Uninitialized location when reporting
+ ambiguity): Test the above case.
+ Also, the embedded comments in this test case claim it checks the case
+ of an empty RHS that has inherited the initial location. However, the
+ corresponding LHS was already resolved, so yyresolveLocations didn't
+ actually have reason to modify it. Fix this by forcing
+ nondeterministic operation at the beginning of the parse.

+
+ * data/c.m4 (b4_yy_symbol_print_generate):

+ Remove the yyvalp and yylocp parameters since they are always just
+ taken from the yys parameter. When reporting a discarded merged value
+ in debugging output, note that it is incompletely merged. Document the
+ interface.
+ (yyresolveAction): If resolving any of the RHS states fails, destroy
+ them all rather than leaking them. Thus, as long as user actions are
+ written to clean up the RHS correctly, yyresolveAction always cleans up
