+       tests: use perl for printing special sequences to files.
+       And skip tests if perl is not available.  This is better than
+       playing tricks with shell portability.  Suggested by Akim
+       Demaille.
+       * tests/input.at (Bad character literals): Use it here for
+       omitting final newlines.
+       (Bad escapes in literals): Use it here for special characters.

+
+       tests: show a use of %define lr.default-reductions "consistent"
+       * tests/conflicts.at (%nonassoc and eof): Extend to test that it
+       prevents the omission of expected tokens for %error-verbose.

+
+       tests: portability fix.
+       * tests/input.at (Bad escapes in literals): Don't expect "echo
+       '\0'" to output \ then 0.

+
+       Actually handle the yytable zero value correctly this time.
+       * data/bison.m4 (b4_integral_parser_tables_map): Don't mention
+       zero values in the YYTABLE comments.
+       * data/glr.c (yytable_value_is_error): Don't check for zero
+       value.
+       * data/lalr1.cc (yy_table_value_is_error_): Likewise.
+       * data/yacc.c (yytable_value_is_error): Likewise.
+       * data/lalr1.java (yy_table_value_is_error_): Likewise.
+       (yysyntax_error): Fix typo in code: use yytable_ not yycheck_.
+       * src/tables.h: In header comments, explain why it's useless to
+       check for a zero value in yytable.
