+
+       Replace yychar with a Boolean.
+       * data/lalr1.cc (parse::yychar): Replace by...
+       (parse::yyempty): this.

+       Factor the tables.
+       * TODO: New item.

+
+       Let yytranslate handle the eof case.
+       * data/lalr1.cc (yytranslate_): Handle the EOF case.
+       Adjust callers.
+       No longer expect yychar to be equal to yyeof_, rather, test the
+       lookahead's (translated) kind.

+
+       yychar cannot be empty in yyerrlab.
+       * TODO (yychar == yyempty_): New.
+       * data/lalr1.cc: Remove the handling of this case.
+       This eases forthcoming changes related to yychar and yytranslate.

+
+       Bench: syntactic sugar for %define/#define.
+       * etc/bench.pl.in (parse_dirs): Support %d and #d with arguments.
+       (&bench_push_parser, bench_variant_parser): Use this feature.
+       (&eat): New.
+       Use it.

+       Less memory pressure on the "list" bench.
+       * etc/bench.pl.in (generate_grammar_list): Do not accumulate all
+       the values, to limit memory pressure.

+
+       Introduce make_symbol.
+       make_symbol provides a means to construct a full symbol (kind, value,
+       location) in a single shot.  It is meant to be a Symbol constructor,
+       parameterized by the symbol kind so that overloading would prevent
+       incorrect kind/value pairs.  Unfortunately parameterized constructors do
+       not work well in C++ (unless the parameter also appears as an argument,
+       which is not acceptable), hence the use of a function instead of a
+       constructor.
+       
+       * data/lalr1.cc (b4_symbol_constructor_declaration_)
+       (b4_symbol_constructor_declarations)
+       (b4_symbol_constructor_specialization_)
+       (b4_symbol_constructor_specializations)
+       (b4_symbol_constructor_definition_)
+       (b4_symbol_constructor_definitions): New.
+       Use them where appropriate to generate declaration, declaration of
+       the specializations, and implementations of the templated
+       overloaded function "make_symbol".
+       (variant::variant): Always define a default ctor.
+       Also provide a copy ctor.
+       (symbol_base_type, symbol_type): New ctor overloads for value-less
+       symbols.
+       (symbol_type): Now public, so that functions such as yylex can use
+       it.

+
+       Inform m4 whether a tag is a valid id.
+       * src/output.c (is_identifier): New.
+       (symbol_definitions_output): Use it to define tag_is_id.
+       But maybe this should be done at m4 level?
