+
+       Fix some comments concerning LR(0) versus LALR(1).
+
+       Stop equating LR(0) with nondeterminism and LALR(1) with
+       determinism.  That is, if all states are consistent, then LR(0)
+       tables are deterministic.  On the other hand, LALR(1) tables
+       might be nondeterministic before conflict resolution, and GLR
+       permits LALR(1) tables to remain nondeterministic.
+       * src/LR0.c, src/LR0.h: Here.
+       * src/lalr.c, src/lalr.h: Here.
+       * src/main.c (main): Here.
+       * src/state.c, src/state.h: Here.
+
+       * src/ielr.h (ielr): In preconditions, expect LR(0) not LALR(1)
+       parser tables.

+       POSIX: warn if %prec's token was not defined.
+       Reported by Florian Krohm at
+       <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-12/msg00005.html>.
+       * NEWS (2.4.2): Document.
+       * src/reader.c (grammar_rule_check): Implement.
+       (grammar_current_rule_prec_set): Add comments explaining that we
+       here assume a %prec identifier is a token, but we still manage
+       to support POSIX.
+       * tests/input.at (%prec's token must be defined): New test
+       group.

+       Propagate i18n changes into glr.c.
+       * data/glr.c (yyreportSyntaxError): Use "switch" instead of
+       building the error message format dynamically.
+       * data/lalr1.java: Formatting changes.
+

+
+       Port small part of master's 11707b2b so future ports are easier.
+       * data/lalr1.java (YYParser::yysyntax_error): Untabify.
+
+2008-12-11  Akim Demaille  <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+       Simplify the i18n of the error messages.
