 * Short term
-** Use syntax_error from the scanner?
-This would provide a means to raise syntax error from function called
-from the scanner.  Actually, there is no good solution to report a
-lexical error in general.  Usually they are kept at the scanner level
-only, ignoring the guilty token.  But that might not be the best bet,
-since we don't benefit from the syntactic error recovery.
-
-We still have the possibility to return an invalid token number, which
-does the trick.  But then the error message from the parser is poor
-(something like "unexpected $undefined").  Since the scanner probably
-already reported the error, we should directly enter error-recovery,
-without reporting the error message (i.e., YYERROR's semantics).
-
-Back to lalr1.cc (whose name is now quite unfortunate, since it also
-covers lr and ielr), if we support exceptions from yylex, should we
-propose a lexical_error in addition to syntax_error?  Should they have
-a common root, say parse_error?  Should syntax_error be renamed
-syntactic_error for consistency with lexical_error?

 What should we name `variant' and `lex_symbol'?

-glr.c inherits its symbol_print function from c.m4, which supports
