output into sed commands to perform the suggested changes.
Initially, I filtered out the THRU->Through changes, because
that failed to retain capitalization in the grammar token.

build: do not prototype flex-generated functions.
Some versions of Flex, possibly modified by the distribution package
maintainers, have incompatible signatures. Since newer versions of
Flex prototype their functions, avoid the conflicts in that case.
Reported by Stefano Lattarini.
