+ Fix yyerror_range for user-defined location type in C++. Reported by
+ Georg Sauthoff at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2008-08/msg00008.html>.
+ * data/lalr1.cc (parse): Change type of yyerror_range to location_type.

+
+2008-10-18 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ Update several administrative files mainly to facilitate releasing.
+ * HACKING (Administrivia): Make the git-merge-changelog notes more
+ helpful.
+ (Test suite): Don't say lalr1.cc is not exercised in the test suite.
+ (Release Procedure): Update for git and add numerous details that were
+ previously missing.
+ * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove Makefile.cfg and Makefile.maint.
+ * maint.mk (announcement): Don't list bison as a bootstrap tool so
+ that announcements don't claim we bootstrapped with whatever bison
+ happened to be in PATH. Add flex as a bootstrap tool.
+ * Makefile.maint: Remove, previously replaced by maint.mk.
+ * Makefile.cfg: Remove, and migrate settings to...
+ * cfg.mk: ... here for the sake of `make announcement'.
+ * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add announce-gen.
+ * README: Say GNU Bison instead of just Bison. Suggested by Karl
+ Berry.
