The trouble is that there is another + node about locations. Its section name is `Locations', which was + easily confused with the node name of this node. Moreover, its + node name is `Locations Overview', which was mistakenly used to + label some cross references to this node. + +2011-05-29 Joel E.

Don't use the + acronyms RHS and LHS given that we don't expand them anywhere in + the manual. Try to use @samp and @code properly.

Denny + + Don't use IF_LINT in Bison sources. + It creates unnecessary differences between the sources that Bison + maintainers build and test (given that maintainers normally + configure with --enable-gcc-warnings) and the sources that Bison + users build. Instead, use PACIFY_CC, which doesn't. This change + fixes compiler warnings reported by Tys Lefering at + . + * configure.ac: Don't AC_DEFINE lint regardless of the configure + options. This change affects imported gnulib sources, where + IF_LINT still appears and depends on lint. + * src/scan-gram.l, src/scan-skel.l: Replace uses of IF_LINT with + PACIFY_CC. + * src/system.h (IF_LINT): Remove cpp macro. + (PACIFY_CC): New cpp macro. + +2011-05-01 Joel E. Denny + + Fix precedence for end token. + Since Bison 2.3b, which restored the ability of precedence + directives to assign user token numbers, doing so for user token + number 0 has produced an assertion failure. + * NEWS (2.5): Document fix. + * src/symtab.c (symbol_user_token_number_set): In the case of the + end token, don't decrement ntokens if it was never incremented. + * tests/regression.at (Token number in precedence declaration): + Extend. + +2011-05-01 Joel E.
