This prevents the future support for languages that do not use `;'
as C/C++/Java do. Yet some grammars still depend on this `feature'.
Bison 2.4.1 restores the previous behavior in the case of C output
(specifically, when neither %language or %skeleton or equivalent
command-line options are used) to leave more time for grammars
depending on the old behavior to be adjusted. Future releases of
Bison will disable this feature.
