+	as a false.
+	If not defined, define the flag to "false".
+	(b4_error_verbose_if): New.
+	* data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/yacc.c: Use it instead of
+	b4_error_verbose_flag.
+	* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (error_verbose_flag): Remove.
+	* src/output.c (prepare): Don't output it.
+	* src/parse-gram.y (%error-verbose): Treat as %define error_verbose.

+	and discussed again starting at
+	<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2008-11/msg00102.html>.
+	* data/bison.m4 (b4_percent_define_default): Leave syncline blank
+	because location information is bogus.
+	Use angle brackets to delimit fake file name because square brackets
+	look like underexpanded m4.  Choose a better fake file name.
+	Use negative line numbers.
+	* src/muscle_tab.c (muscle_percent_define_default): Likewise.
+	* src/location.c (location_print): If line for a boundary is negative,
+	only print that boundary's file name.

+
+2009-03-31  Akim Demaille  <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+	bootstrap: --help to stdout.

+2009-03-26  Akim Demaille  <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+	lalr1.cc: avoid GCC 4.3 warnings.

+	parentheses.
+	Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
+	* data/location.cc: Update copyright years.
+	(Position::operator==): Use parens to make precedence explicit.
+	Compare lines and columns first, as they are more likely to be
+	different, and they are faster to compare.

+2009-03-26  Akim Demaille  <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+	gnulib: update.

+	Remove the "b4_variant_if" parts, as variant.hh is loaded only if
+	needed.
+	* data/lalr1.cc: No longer invoke b4_symbol_constructor_define and
+	b4_symbol_constructor_declare, as it is now done by
+	b4_public_types_define and b4_public_types_declare.

+	* data/c++.m4 (b4_public_types_declare): Now define

+	In both cases, the definitions are taken verbatim from lalr1.cc.
+	* data/lalr1.cc: Adjust.
+
+2009-03-02  Akim Demaille  <demaille@gostai.com>

+
+	Make yyparser::error public.
