+While default locations represent a range in the source file(s), this is not
+a requirement.  It could be a single point or just a line number, or even
+more complex structures.

 When @code{YYLTYPE} is not defined, at the beginning of the parsing, Bison
 initializes all these fields to 1 for @code{yylloc}.  To initialize
 @code{yylloc} with a custom location type (or to chose a different
 initialization), use the @code{%initial-action} directive.  @xref{Initial
 Action Decl}.
