+
+ portability: `<' and `>' are not always defined on addresses.
+ Specifically, don't sort objects by their memory addresses when

+ I haven't found a test case where that fails on my platform, C
+ says the behavior is undefined.

+
+ Fix handling of yychar manipulation in user semantic actions.
+ The problem was that yacc.c didn't always update the yychar
+ translation afterwards. However, other skeletons appear to be
+ fine. glr.c appears to already translate yychar before every
+ use. lalr1.cc does not define yychar and does not document its
+ replacement, yyla, for users. It does provide yyclearin, but
+ that does not manipulate yyla and thus requires no translation
+ update. In lalr1.java, yychar is out of scope during semantic
+ actions.
+ * NEWS (2.5): Document.
+ * data/yacc.c (YYBACKUP): Don't bother translating yychar into
+ yytoken here.
+ (yyparse, yypush_parse): Instead, translate before every use of
+ yytoken, and add comments explaining this approach.
+ * tests/actions.at (Destroying lookahead assigned by semantic
+ action): New test group checking that translation happens before
+ lookahead destructor calls at parser return. Previously,
+ incorrect destructors were called.
+ * tests/conflicts.at (%error-verbose and consistent
+ errors): New test group checking that translation happens at
+ syntax error detection before the associated verbose error
+ message and the associated lookahead destructor calls. While
+ the destructor call is fixed by this patch, the verbose error
+ message is currently incorrect due to another bug (see
+ comments in test group), so this is an expected failure for now.

+
+2009-09-23 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ yysyntax_error: avoid duplicate lookahead collection.
+ Except when memory reallocation is required, this change
+ eliminates the need to invoke yysyntax_error twice and thus to
+ repeat the collection of lookaheads. It also prepares for
+ future extensions that will make those repetitions more
+ expensive and that will require additional memory management in
+ yysyntax_error. Finally, it fixes an obscure bug already
+ exercised in the test suite.
+ * data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): Add arguments for message
+ buffer variables stored in the parser. Instead of size, return
+ status similar to yyparse status but indicating success of
+ message creation. Other than the actual reallocation of the
+ message buffer, import and clean up memory management code
+ from...
+ (yyparse, yypush_parse): ... here.
+ * tests/regression.at (%error-verbose overflow): No longer an
+ expected failure.
+
+2009-09-23 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ yysyntax_error: test memory management more.
+ * tests/atlocal.in (NO_WERROR_CFLAGS): New cpp macro.
+ * tests/regression.at (%error-verbose and YYSTACK_USE_ALLOCA):
+ New test group.
+ (%error-verbose overflow): New test group that reveals an
+ obscure bug. Expected fail for now.
+
+2008-12-11 Akim Demaille <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+ Pass the token type to yysyntax_error.
+ * data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): Take the transated token instead
+ of the raw number.
+ Adjust callers.
+
+2008-12-11 Akim Demaille <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+ Simplify the i18n of the error messages.
+ * data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): Rewrite, using a switch instead
+ of building dynamically the format string.
+
+2009-10-03 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ Remove dead code.
+ * src/symtab.c (symbol_pack): Here because every symbol's number
+ is always defined by this time.
