+
+ build: lower gettext requirements.
+
+ Bison was uselessly requiring the formatstring macros from
+ gettext, which resulted in mo files not being installed on systems
+ that perfectly supported Bison mo files. Lower the requirement.
+ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-08/msg00006.html
+
+ * configure.ac: Require need-ngettext instead of
+ need-formatstring-macros.
+ Reported by Martin Jabocs.
+ Suggested by Bruno Haible.
+ * INSTALL: Restructure.
+ (Internationalization): New.

+
+ build: fix the generation of the documentation.
+ Some of our targets use "bison --help", but they can't depend on
+ "bison" itself (to avoid additional requirements on the user), so
+ they used to call "make src/bison" in the commands. Then
+ concurrent builds may fail: one make might be aiming one of its
+ jobs at compiling src/bison, and another job at generating the man
+ page. If the latter is faster than the former, then we have two
+ makes that concurrently try to compile src/bison.
+
+ This might also be a more convincing explanation for the failure
+ described in the patch "build: fix paths".
+
+ * Makefile.am (SUFFIXES): Initialize.
+ * build-aux/move-if-change: New, symlink to gnulib's.
+ * build-aux/local.mk: Ship it.
+ * doc/common.x: Remove, merged into...

+ (common_dep): Remove, inlined where appropriate.
+ (SUFFIXES, PREPATH): Remove, unused.

+ * etc/prefix-gnulib-mk (prefix_assignment): Don't rename
+ gl_LIBOBJS.

+ Prefix directories that are mkdir'd.

+
+ build: fix paths.
+ When using $(top_builddir) inconsistently, Make (including GNU
+ Make) is sometimes confused. As a result it may want to build
+ lib/libbison.la and $(top_builddir)/lib/libbison.la (the same
+ file, different names) concurrently, which, amusingly enough,
+ might end with:
+
+ ranlib lib/libbison.a
+ ranlib lib/libbison.a
+ make[2]: *** [lib/libbison.a] Segmentation fault
+
+ on OS X.
+
+ * doc/local.mk, src/local.mk: Do not use $(top_builddir) when not
+ needed.

+ Miscellaneous code readability improvements.
+
+ * src/reader.c (reader): Move %define front-end variable
+ defaults and checking into...
+ (prepare_percent_define_front_end_variables): ... this new
+ function.
+
+ * src/scan-gram.l (INITIAL): For consistency with string
+ literals, don't store open quote on character literal. It's
+ discarded before returning anyway.
+ (SC_ESCAPED_CHARACTER): Similarly, don't store close quote.
+ Make length test more readable, and make the character stored
+ for an empty literal more obvious while consistent with the
+ previous behavior.
+
+ * src/symtab.c, src/symtab.h: Rename USER_NUMBER_ALIAS to
+ USER_NUMBER_HAS_STRING_ALIAS throughout.
+ * src/symtab.c (symbol_make_alias): Remove comment from symtab.c
+ that is repeated in symtab.h. Improve argument names to make it

+
+ Pacify "gcc -Wunused" for the input function from Flex.
+ Reported by Alex Rozenman. This warning shows up with gcc-4.3.0

+ * src/scan-code.l: Add "%option noinput", which I cannot find in

+ Support parametric types.
+
+ There are two issues to handle: first scanning nested angle
+ bracket pairs to support types such as std::pair< std::string,
+ std::list<std::string> > >.
+
+ Another issue is to address idiosyncracies of C++: do not glue two
+ closing angle brackets together (otherwise it's operator>>), and
+ avoid sticking blindly a TYPE to the opening <, as it can result
+ in '<:' which is a digraph for '['.

+
+ Instead of using make_symbol<TOK_FOO>, generate make_FOO for each

+ Using template buys us nothing, and makes it uselessly complex to

+
+ * data/lalr1.cc (b4_symbol_): New.
+ (b4_symbol): Use it.
+ (b4_symbol_constructor_declaration_)
+ (b4_symbol_constructor_definition_): Instead of generating
+ specializations of an overloaded template function, just generate
+ several functions whose names are forged from the token names
+ without the token.prefix.
+ (b4_symbol_constructor_declarations): Generate them for all the
+ symbols, not just by class of symbol type, now that instead of
+ specializing a function template by the token, we generate a
+ function named after the token.

+
+ %define token.prefix.
+ Provide a means to add a prefix to the name of the tokens as
+ output in the generated files. Because of name clashes, it is
+ good to have such a prefix such as TOK_ that protects from names
+ such as EOF, FILE etc. But it clutters the grammar itself.
+
+ * data/bison.m4 (token.prefix): Empty by default.

+ (yytoken_number_): Move into...

+
+ Define the constructors of symbol_type in

+ The constructors are called by the make_symbol functions, which a

+ putting them together.
+
+ The stack_symbol_type does not need to be moved, it is used only
+ by the parser.
+
+ * data/lalr1.cc: Move symbol_type and symbol_base_type
