* m4/.gitignore, po/.gitignore, runtime-po/.gitignore:
Omit leading '/', since bootstrap omits it.
Adjust file names to match current contents better.
* bootstrap: Sync from gnulib: this contains the new gnulib_mk_hook
installed just for us.
* bootstrap.conf (excluded_files): Don't exclude codeset.m4,
glibc21.m4, inttypes_h.m4, size_max.m4, xsize.m4, as they are now
needed somehow. Don't have time to look into why.
(gnulib_modules): Change malloc to malloc-gnu. Do we really assume
the GNU malloc behavior, where malloc (0) != NULL unless we're
out of storage? If not, we can omit malloc-gnu; but for now I left
it in to be safe.
(vc_ignore): Remove.
(gnulib_mk_hook): New function.
* README-hacking: Renamed from HACKING, since gnulib bootstrap now
uses that convention.
* NEWS (2.4.3): Mention that there are documentation fixes.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Expect Decl): Make it clear that %expect
turns conflicts into errors not warnings.
(Shift/Reduce): Likewise.
(Bison Options): Don't mention -Wsyntax. It doesn't exist.
(cherry picked from commit 3ffdd5f125)
* data/glr.c: Remove tests for __cplusplus related to definition of
YYSTACKEXPANDABLE.
* doc/bison.texinfo: Rewrite paragraph saying C++ stacks are not
expandable to instead indicate conditions that prevent their expansion
in C++. Reorganize section on GLR semantic values a bit. Remove
discussion of YYLLOC_DEFAULT. Mention restrictions to POD data.
These changes allow users to prefix an action with %? to indicate that it
is a semantic predicate---an expression that is evaluated immediately (not
deferred, even in GLR nondeterministic mode) and causes a syntax error if
false. In GLR parsers, this has the effect of killing one of a set of
split-off parses, just as would an ordinary syntax error.
Changelog:
* NEWS: Describe new semantic-predicate feature.
* data/c.m4 (b4_predicate_case): New definition.
* data/java.m4 (b4_predicate_case): New definition.
* data/glr.c (yyimmediate): Add definition.

Do YY_REDUCE_PRINT here.
(yyglrReduce): Alter comment to indicate that semantic values
need not be deferred.
Remove YY_REDUCE_PRINT from here; done in yydoAction.
(yyprocessOneStack): Pass immediate flag.
Delete stacks rejected by predicates in newly split-off parsers.
Change handling of yyerr so that only current stack gets deleted
when semantic predicate fails.
(yyfillin): Don't crash if a semantic value is unresolved (as may
happen in predicate rules).
Copy lr state as well in debugging mode.
Update comment on setting of yysval to include yyloc as well.
(yy_reduce_print): Add yynormal argument. Perform fillin properly.
Report unresolved RHS values.

names in comments and mention all parameters.
(struct yyGLRState): Fix description of yyposn field.
(yyresolveLocations): Correct comment so as not to imply action when
yyn1==0.

LocalWords, since the latter are looked for in the whole document,
while the former are looked for only at its end.
Require american spell checking.

"variant" %define variables.
(C++ Semantic Values): Split into...

changes.

are n-ary.
Changes some examples to demonstrate it.

doc: %initial-action to initialize yylloc.
Reported by Bill Allombert.
* doc/bison.texinfo: Set fill-column to 76.
(Location Type): Document the use of %initial-action to initialize
yylloc.
Some of our targets use "bison --help", but they can't depend on
"bison" itself (to avoid additional requirements on the user), so
they used to call "make src/bison" in the commands. Then
concurrent builds may fail: one make might be aiming one of its
jobs at compiling src/bison, and another job at generating the man
page. If the latter is faster than the former, then we have two
makes that concurrently try to compile src/bison.
This might also be a more convincing explanation for the failure
described in the patch "build: fix paths".
* Makefile.am (SUFFIXES): Initialize.
* build-aux/move-if-change: New, symlink to gnulib's.
* build-aux/local.mk: Ship it.
* doc/common.x: Remove, merged into...
* doc/bison.x: here.
* doc/local.mk (doc/bison.help): New.
($(CROSS_OPTIONS_TEXI)): Depend on it.
Use src/bison.

(doc/bison.1): this explicit, simpler, target.
(common_dep): Remove, inlined where appropriate.
(SUFFIXES, PREPATH): Remove, unused.
When using $(top_builddir) inconsistently, Make (including GNU
Make) is sometimes confused. As a result it may want to build
lib/libbison.la and $(top_builddir)/lib/libbison.la (the same
file, different names) concurrently, which, amusingly enough,
might end with:
ranlib lib/libbison.a
ranlib lib/libbison.a
make[2]: *** [lib/libbison.a] Segmentation fault
on OS X.
* doc/local.mk, src/local.mk: Do not use $(top_builddir) when not
needed.
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.

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.)
* 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.
