* NEWS (2.5): Document.
* src/scan-gram.l (INITIAL): Remove comment that we don't check
the length.
(SC_ESCAPED_CHARACTER): Warn if length is wrong.
* tests/input.at (Bad character literals): New test group.
(cherry picked from commit ac9b0e954b)
* src/named-ref.c: Add a pointer check (named_ref_free).
* src/scan-code.l: New function (variant_table_free). Called in
code_scanner_free.
* src/symlist.c: Call to named_ref_free (symbol_list_free).
Suggested by Eric Blake at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2009-04/msg00083.html>.
* tests/existing.at (_AT_TEST_EXISTING_GRAMMAR): Do not
complicate the code by distinguishing between a missing value
and an empty string value for an optional argument. This fix is
allowed by the similar fix in AT_TEST_TABLES_AND_PARSE below.
* tests/local.at (_AT_TEST_TABLES_AND_PARSE): Merge into...
(AT_TEST_TABLES_AND_PARSE): ... this now that the special
arguments are not needed because of the following changes.
Fix stale comments.
Bison developers should use GNU M4 and should not use
POSIXLY_CORRECT when building the test suite, so do not
complicate the code by avoiding $10 and above.
Do not quote an empty string value for an optional argument, and
do not distinguish between a missing value and an empty string
value.
(cherry picked from commit cba975069a)
* src/named-ref.h: Add comments.
* src/parse-gram.y: Readability and style changes.
* src/reader.c: Factoring: assign_named_ref function.
* src/scan-code.l: Factoring and style changes. Rename
parse_named_ref to parse_ref. Use "c-ctype.h" from gnulib.
Use "unsigned" type for variant index. Improve readablity.
* src/scan-gram.l: Change error messages and add comments.
* src/symlist.h: symbol_list_null: New function decl.
* src/symlist.c: symbol_list_null: Implement here.
* tests/named-refs.at: Adjust for new error messages.
* examples/calc++/Makefile.am (calc.stamp): New.
Depend on it to create the sources of calc++ so that concurrent
builds don't launch several "extexi" in parallel.
Not only this is inefficient, this also builds incorrect sources
with several extractions mixed together.
* data/bison.m4: Move code related to specific variables after the
definition of the variable-maintaining macros so that we don't
"invoke" b4_percent_define_check_values before it is defined.
Implement, document, and test the replacement of %error-verbose
by %define parse.error "verbose".
* data/bison.m4 (b4_error_verbose_if): Reimplement to track the
values of the parse.error variable.
Make "simple" its default value.
Check the valid values.
* src/parse-gram.y: Use %define parse.error.
(PERCENT_ERROR_VERBOSE): New token.
Support it.
* src/scan-gram.l: Support %error-verbose.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Decl Summary): Replace the documentation of
%define error-verbose by that of %define parse.error.
* NEWS: Document it.
* tests/actions.at, tests/calc.at: Use parse.error instead of
%error-verbose.

* src/reader.c: Store named refs in symbol lists.
* src/reader.h: New argument for symbol_append and
action_append functions.
* src/scan-code.h: Add new field (named_ref) into
code_props data structure. Keeps named ref of midrule
actions.
* src/scan-code.l: Support for named refs in semantic
action code. New function 'parse_named_ref'.
* src/scan-gram.l: Support bracketed id.
* src/symlist.c: Store named refs in symbol lists.
* src/symlist.h: New field in symbol list: named_ref.
* src/named-ref.h: New file, a struct for named_ref.
* src/named-ref.cp: New file, named_ref_new function.
* src/local.mk: Add two new files.
* tests/testsuite.at: Include new test group:
* tests/named-refs.at: this new file.
Discussed in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2009-04/msg00033.html
* 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.)
Some consistency checks on symbols are performed after all the
symbols were read, by an iteration over the symbol table. This
traversal is nondeterministic, which can be a problem for test
cases.
Avoid this.
Addresses another form of nondeterminism reported by Joel E. Denny.

* tests/input.at (Numbered tokens): Split the hexadecimal/decimal
test in two.
Use different file names for the three tests to make the
maintenance easier.
* gnulib: Update to latest.
* lib/.cvsignore, lib/.gitignore, m4/.cvsignore,
* m4/.gitignore: Regen.
* src/symtab.c (symbol_from_uniqstr, semantic_type_from_uniqstr):
Call xalloc_die on hash_insert failures.
Requested by the new __warn_unused_result__ attribute of
hash_insert.
* data/bison.m4 (b4_check_user_names): In header comments, say
"user occurrence" instead of "grammar occurrence".
* src/muscle-tab.h (muscle_percent_define_insert): Likewise.
(muscle_percent_code_grow): Likewise just for consistency.
(cherry picked from commit 246c4efafe)
Conflicts:
src/muscle-tab.h
* data/c++.m4 (b4_namespace_close): Don't let it be printed
among the closing braces here. This fix might make the
generated code easier to debug, but otherwise it should be
insignificant because a trailing `:' is a C++ error already.
(cherry picked from commit 8c221795af)
* 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.

(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.

Index discussion of "accepting state".

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.
