095a1d11ca yysyntax_error: fix for consistent error with lookahead.
* NEWS (2.5): Document.
* data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): In a verbose syntax error
message while in a consistent state with a default action (which
must be an error action given that yysyntax_error is being
invoked), continue to drop the expected token list, but don't
drop the unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead.
Moreover, handle that internally instead of returning 1 to tell
the caller to do it.  With that meaning of 1 gone, renumber
return codes more usefully.
(yyparse, yypush_parse): Update yysyntax_error usage.  Most
importantly, set yytoken to YYEMPTY when there's no lookahead.
* data/glr.c (yyreportSyntaxError): As in yacc.c, don't drop the
unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* data/lalr1.cc (yy::parser::parse): If there's no lookahead,
set yytoken to yyempty_ before invoking yysyntax_error_.
(yy::parser::yysyntax_error_): Again, don't drop the unexpected
token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* data/lalr1.java (YYParser::parse): If there's no lookahead,
set yytoken to yyempty_ before invoking yysyntax_error.
(YYParser::yysyntax_error): Again, don't drop the unexpected
token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* tests/conflicts.at (%error-verbose and consistent
errors): Extend test group to further reveal how the previous
use of the simple "syntax error" message was too general.  Test
yacc.c, glr.c, lalr1.cc, and lalr1.java.  No longer an expected
failure.
* tests/java.at (AT_JAVA_COMPILE, AT_JAVA_PARSER_CHECK): Move
to...
* tests/local.at: ... here.
(_AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS): Push AT_SKEL_JAVA_IF definition.
(AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Pop it.
(AT_FULL_COMPILE): Extend to handle Java.

* NEWS (2.4.3): Document fix.
* src/complain.c (error_message): Extend to handle incomplete

47fa574761 portability: fix several issues with M4 subprocess.
M4's output pipe was not being drained upon fatal errors during
scan_skel.  As a result, broken-pipe messages from M4 were seen
on at least AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, and RHEL4, and this caused a
failure in the test suite.  The problem was that, on platforms
where the default disposition for SIGPIPE is ignore instead of
terminate, M4 sometimes saw fwrite fail with errno=EPIPE and
then reported it.  However, there's some sort of race condition,
because the new test group occasionally succeeded.
Reported by Albert Chin at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2010-02/msg00004.html>.

There were also problems with the test suite livelocking on
Tru64 5.1b.  Reported by Didier Godefroy at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2009-05/msg00005.html>.
Switching to create_pipe_bidi suggested by Akim Demaille.

To attempt to solve both of these problems, switch to gnulib's
create_pipe_bidi and register M4 process as a slave.  Along the
way, clean up file name conflict handling, which was affected by
the broken-pipe problem before the switch.
* NEWS (2.4.2): Document.
* THANKS (Didier Godefroy): Add.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add pipe.
* gnulib: Update to latest to make sure we have all the latest

* lib/Makefile.am (libbison_a_SOURCES): Remove subpipe.h and

* po/POTFILES.in (lib/subpipe.c): Remove.
* src/files.c (compute_output_file_names): Update invocations
of output_file_name_check.
(output_file_name_check): In the case that the grammar file
would be overwritten, use complain instead of fatal, but replace
the output file name with /dev/null.  Use the /dev/null solution
for the case of two conflicting output files as well because it
seems safer in case Bison one day tries to open both files at
the same time.
* src/files.h (output_file_name_check): Update prototype.
* src/output.c (output_skeleton): Use create_pipe_bidi and
wait_subprocess.  Assert that scan_skel completely drains the
pipe.
* src/scan-skel.l (at_directive_perform): Update
output_file_name_check invocation.
* tests/output.at (AT_CHECK_CONFLICTING_OUTPUT): Check that the
grammar file actually isn't overwritten.
(Conflicting output files: -o foo.y): Update expected output.
* tests/skeletons.at (Fatal errors but M4 continues producing

abcc7c03cc Fix handling of yychar manipulation in user semantic actions.
The problem was that yacc.c didn't always update the yychar
translation afterwards.  However, other skeletons appear to be
fine.  glr.c appears to already translate yychar before every
use.  lalr1.cc does not define yychar and does not document its
replacement, yyla, for users.  It does provide yyclearin, but
that does not manipulate yyla and thus requires no translation
update.  In lalr1.java, yychar is out of scope during semantic
actions.
* NEWS (2.5): Document.
* data/yacc.c (YYBACKUP): Don't bother translating yychar into
yytoken here.
(yyparse, yypush_parse): Instead, translate before every use of
yytoken, and add comments explaining this approach.
* tests/actions.at (Destroying lookahead assigned by semantic
action): New test group checking that translation happens before
lookahead destructor calls at parser return.  Previously,
incorrect destructors were called.
* tests/conflicts.at (%error-verbose and consistent
errors): New test group checking that translation happens at
syntax error detection before the associated verbose error
message and the associated lookahead destructor calls.  While
the destructor call is fixed by this patch, the verbose error
message is currently incorrect due to another bug (see
comments in test group), so this is an expected failure for now.

(Language and Grammar): Bison is no longer limited to LALR(1)

when trying to distinguish from GLR.  Talk about LR(1) grammars
rather than LALR(1) grammars.

to deterministic parsers in C rather than LALR(1) parsers in C.

than implying Bison is limited to LALR(1).
(LocalWords): Add IELR.
