* data/bison.m4 (b4_percent_define_copy_, b4_percent_define_copy):
New.
(b4_percent_define_use): New.
Use it where applicable.
* data/c++.m4: Replace uses of the variable "namespace" by
"api.namespace".
Default the latter to the former.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Decl Summary): Document "namespace" as
obsolete.
Document api.namespace.
Use @samp to document %define uses, keep @code for identifiers.
* NEWS: Likewise.
* tests/c++.at, tests/input.at: Test api.namespace instead of
namespace. (The tests passed with namespace.)
* doc/bison.simple (Decl Summary): Document token.prefix.
(Calc++ Parser): Various fixes.
Formatting changes.
Use token.prefix.
Introduce a macro TOKEN to shorten the code and make it more
readable.
(Calc++ Scanner): Adjust.
* NEWS (Variable token.prefix): New.
For now, just api.push-pull and lr.keep-unreachable-states.
Maintain old names for backward compatibility.
* NEWS (2.5): Document.
* data/c.m4 (b4_identification): Update comment.
* data/yacc.c: Update access.
* doc/bison.texinfo: Update.
* etc/bench.pl.in (bench_push_parser): Update use.
* src/files.c (tr): Move to...
* src/getargs.c, src/getargs.h (tr): ... here because I can't
think of a better place to expose it. My logic is that, for all
uses of tr so far, command-line arguments can be involved, and
getargs.h is already included.
* src/main.c (main): Update access.
* src/muscle_tab.c (muscle_percent_define_insert): Convert old
variable names to new variable names before assigning value.
* src/reader.c (reader): Update setting default.
* tests/calc.at: Update uses.
* tests/conflicts.at (Unreachable States After Conflict
Resolution): Update use.
* tests/input.at (%define enum variables): Update use.
(%define backward compatibility): New test group.
* tests/push.at: Update uses.
* tests/reduce.at: Update uses.
* tests/torture.at: Update uses.

* NEWS (2.5): Add an entry.
* src/getargs.c (usage): Mention IELR(1) and canonical LR(1)
besides just LALR(1) and GLR(1).
* doc/bison.texinfo (Introduction): Likewise.
(Language and Grammar): Bison is no longer limited to LALR(1)
restrictions.
(GLR parsing): Say deterministic or LR(1) rather than LALR(1)
when trying to distinguish from GLR. Talk about LR(1) grammars
rather than LALR(1) grammars.
(Decl Summary): In %define api.push_pull entry, say it applies
to deterministic parsers in C rather than LALR(1) parsers in C.
Add lr.default_rules entry.
Add lr.type entry.
(Mystery Conflicts): Bison is no longer limited to LALR(1)
restrictions.
(Generalized LR Parsing): Same changes as for the previous GLR
section.
(Memory Management): Say deterministic rather than LALR(1).
(Understanding): Correct some bison output.
Index discussion of "accepting state".
Say deterministic rather than LALR(1).
(Bison Options): In --yacc entry, say deterministic rather than
LALR(1).
In --report, --graph, and --xml entries, just don't mention
LALR(1).
(C++ Parsers): Say deterministic rather than LALR(1).
(Table of Symbols): Likewise in YYSTACK_USE_ALLOCA entry.
(Glossary): Add Accepting State, Consistent State, Default Rule,
and IELR(1) definitions.
In Generalized LR (GLR) definition, make same changes as in
previous GLR sections.
In LALR(1) definition, say Bison uses LALR(1) by default rather
than implying Bison is limited to LALR(1).
(LocalWords): Add IELR.

prefix.
(.x.1): Adjust to be able to create src/foo from the top level
Makefile, instead of going bounce to src/Makefile the creation of
foo.
