Bison uses "/usr/bin/perl" or "perl" in several places, and it does
not appear to be a problem. But, at least to make it simpler to
change PERL on the make command line, check for perl in configure.

lalr1.cc: fix test suite portability
Reported by Rob Vermaas' Hydra build farm on x86_64-darwin 10.2.0 with
G++ 4.6.3.
* tests/headers.at (Several parsers): Include AT_DATA_SOURCE_PROLOGUE
in the files to compile.
* data/location.cc: Do not include twice string and iostream (once
by position.hh, and then by location.hh).
* README-hacking (Typical errors): Some hints for other maintainers.
errors: indent "user token number redeclaration" context
This is the continuation of the work on the readability of errors
context.
* src/symtab.c (user_token_number_redeclaration): Use
complain_at_indent to output with increased indentation level.
* tests/input:at: Apply this change.
This improves readability. This is also what gcc does.
* NEWS: Document this change.
* src/complain.c (complain_at): Prefix all errors with "error: ".
(complain_at_indent, warn_at_indent): Do not prefix the context
information of errors, which are basically just indented errors.
* tests/conflicts.at, tests/glr-regression.at, tests/input.at,
tests/named-refs.at, tests/output.at, tests/push.at,
tests/regression.at, tests/skeletons.at: Apply this change.
errors: indent "invalid value for %define" context
This is the continuation of the work on the readability of errors
context.
For example, what used to be:
input.y:1.9-29: invalid value for %define variable 'foo' : 'bar'
input.y:1.9-29: accepted value: 'most'
is now:
input.y:1.9-29: invalid value for %define variable 'foo' : 'bar'
input.y:1.9-29: accepted value: 'most'
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_define_check_values): Use
complain_at_indent to output with increased indentation level.
* tests/input:at: Apply this change.
This is the continuation of the work on the readability of errors
context.
For example, what used to be:
input.y:2.9-11: %define variable 'var' redefined
input.y:1.9-11: previous definition
is now:
input.y:2.9-11: %define variable 'var' redefined
input.y:1.9-11: previous definition
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_define_insert): Use
complain_at_indent to output with increased indentation level.
* tests/input.at: Apply this change.
input.y:6.5-10: result type clash on merge function 'merge': [...]
input.y:2.4-9: previous declaration
In order to distinguish the actual error from the context provided, we
rather this new output:
input.y:6.5-10: result type clash on merge function 'merge': [...]
input.y:2.4-9: previous declaration
Another patch will introduce an "error: " prefix to all non-indented
lines, giving yet better readability to the reports.
* src/complain.h (SUB_INDENT): Move to here.
* src/reader.c (record_merge_function_type): Use complain_at_indent to
output with increased indentation level.
* src/scan-code.l (SUB_INDENT): Remove from here.
* tests/glr-regression.at: Apply this change.
yacc: fix handling of CPP guards when no header is generated
When no header was to be generated, Bison would issue:

* data/c.m4 (b4_cpp_guard_open, b4_cpp_guard_close): Issue nothing when
