isn't a question of whether the user *declares* that symbol (in %token,
for example). It's a question of whether the user by any means
*defines* the symbol at all (by simply using a char token, for
example). $end is defined by Bison whereas any other token with token

YYSTYPE if your grammar contains at least one <type> tag.
Your YYSTYPE need not be a macro; it can be a typedef.

%union has been seen, since grammars can now be typed without
%union.

Keep track of whether a tag has been seen.

* NEWS, doc/bison.texinfo: The initial column and line are 1 by
default.

%end-header. Don't use these declarations to separate pre-prologue
blocks from post-prologue blocks. Add new order-independent
declarations %before-header and %after-header as alternatives to the
traditional Yacc pre-prologue and post-prologue blocks. Discussed at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-06/msg00110.html>.

whether these declarations have been seen.

file and the glr.c header and code files, move the pre-prologue before
the token definitions. Add new %before-definitions and
%after-definitions to declare code that will go in both the header file
and code file. Discussed at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2005-12/msg00000.html>,
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-01/msg00016.html>,

code file right before including the header file.

header and code file.

of prologues for %union dependencies.
(Bison Declaration Summary): In %defines description, mention the
effect of %before-definitions and %after-definitions on the header
file.

on whether the %union is declared.
* tests/regression.at (Early token definitions with --yacc, Early token
definitions without --yacc): Move tests for token definitions into the
post-prologue since token names are no longer defined in the
pre-prologue.
