Also, it was + hard to filter these tables when only a subset of the symbols (say the + tokens, or the nterms, or the tokens that have and external number + *and* a type-name) was of interest. + + Now instead of monolithic tables, we define one macro per cell. For + instance "b4_symbol(0, tag)" is a macro name which contents is + self-decriptive.
