+
+ Give a try to M4 as a back end.
+
+ * lib/readpipe.c: New, from wdiff.
+ * src/Makefile.am (DEFS): Define PKGDATADIR, not BISON_SIMPLE and
+ BISON_HAIRY.
+ * src/system.h (BISON_HAIRY, BISON_SIMPLE): Remove the DOS and VMS
+ specific values. Now it is m4 that performs the lookup.
+ * src/parse-skel.y: Remove.
+ * src/muscle_tab.c, src/muscle_tab.h (muscles_m4_output): New.
+ * src/output.c (actions_output, guards_output)
+ (token_definitions_output): No longer keeps track of the output
+ line number, hence remove the second argument.
+ (guards_output): Check against the guard member of a rule, not the
+ action member.
+ Adjust callers.
+ (output_skeleton): Don't look for the skeleton location, let m4 do
+ that.
+ Create `/tmp/muscles.m4'. This is temporary, a proper temporary
+ file will be used.
+ Invoke `m4' on m4sugar.m4, muscles.m4, and the skeleton.
+ (prepare): Given that for the time being changesyntax is not
+ usable in M4, rename the muscles using `-' to `_'.
+ Define `defines_flag', `output_parser_name' and `output_header_name'.
+ * src/output.h (actions_output, guards_output)
+ (token_definitions_output): Adjust prototypes.
+ * src/scan-skel.l: Instead of scanning the skeletons, it now
+ processes the output of m4: `__oline__' and `#output'.
+ * data/bison.simple: Adjust to be used by M4(sugar).
+ * tests/Makefile.am: Use check_SCRIPTS to make sure `bison' is up
+ to date.
+ * tests/bison.in: Use the secrete envvar `BISON_PKGDATADIR'
+ instead of the dead `BISON_SIMPLE' and `BISON_HAIRY'.
+ * data/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4, data/m4sugar/version.m4: New,
+ shamelessly stolen from CVS Autoconf.
