In Bison we refer to "shift/reduce" conflicts, not "shift-reduce" (in
Bison 3.6.3 186 occurrences vs 15). Enforce consistency on this.
Instead of "spending" a second line for each conflict to report the
lookaheads, put that on the same line as the type of conflict. Also,
prefer "token" to "symbol". Maybe we should even prefer "lookahead".
While at it, enable internationalization, with plurals where
appropriate.
As a consequence, instead of
Shift-Reduce Conflict:
6: 3 b: . %empty
6: 6 d: c . A
On Symbol: A
display
Shift/reduce conflict on token A:
6: 3 b: . %empty

Teaches bison about a new command line option, --file-prefix-map OLD=NEW
(based on the -ffile-prefix-map option from GCC) which causes it to
replace and file path of OLD in the text of the output file with NEW,
mainly for header guards and comments. The primary use of this is to
make builds reproducible with different input paths, and in particular
the debugging information produced when the source code is compiled. For
example, a distro may know that the bison source code will be located at
"/usr/src/bison" and thus can generate bison files that are reproducible
with the following command:
bison --output=/build/bison/parse.c -d --file-prefix-map=/build/bison/=/usr/src/bison/ parse.y
Importantly, this will change the header guards and #line directives
from:
#ifndef YY_BUILD_BISON_PARSE_H
#line 100 "/build/bison/parse.h"
to
#ifndef YY_USR_SRC_BISON_PARSE_H
#line 100 "/usr/src/bison/parse.h"
which is reproducible.

also warn about "/*" inside a comment, so let's "escape" it too.

I'm quite pleased to see that the tricky case of glr.c was already

The other case seem to be working, but that's an illusion that the

We will not keep YYERRCODE anyway, it causes backward compatibility
issues. So as a first step, let all the skeletons use that name,

On macOS, wc -l always prepends the result with a tab, even when fed

The user should think of yypcontext fields as accessible only via
yypcontext_* functions. So let's rename yyexpected_tokens to reflect
that.
Let's _not_ rename yyreport_syntax_error, as the user may define this
function, and is not allowed to access directly the fields of
yypcontext_t: she *must* use the "accessors". This is comparable to
the case of C++/Java where the user defines
parser::report_syntax_error, not parser::context::report_syntax_error.

Rename as...

The name "$end" is nice in the report, in particular it avoids that
pointed-rules (aka items) be too long. It also helps keeping them
"standard".
But it is bad in error messages, we should report "end of file" (or
maybe "end of input", this is debatable). So, unless the user already
defined the alias for the error token herself, make it "end of file".
It should even be translated if the user already translated some
tokens, so that there is now no strong reason to redefine the $end
token.

Currently EOF is handled in an adhoc way, with a #define YYEOF 0 in
the implementation file. As a result, the user has to define her own
EOF token if she wants to use it, which is a pity.
Give the $end token a visible kind name, YYEOF. Except that in C,
where enums are not scoped, we would have collisions between all the
definitions of YYEOFs in the header files, so in C, make it
<api.PREFIX>EOF.
* data/skeletons/c.m4 (YYEOF): Override its name to avoid collisions.
Unless the user already gave it a different name.

_is_ a token.

There are people out there that do use YYERRCODE (the token kind of
the error token). See for instance
3812012bb7/unixODBC-2.3.2/Drivers/nn/yylex.c.
Currently, YYERRCODE is defined by yacc.c in an adhoc way as a #define
in the *.c file only. It belongs with the other token kinds.
YYERRCODE is not a nice name, it does not fit in our naming scheme.
YYERROR would be more logical, but it collides with the YYERROR macro.
Shall we keep the same name in all the skeletons? Besides, to avoid
collisions in C, we need to apply the api prefix: YYERRCODE is
actually <PREFIX>ERRCODE. This is not needed in the other languages.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4 (b4_symbol_token_kind): New.

A forthcoming commit (tokens: properly define the "error" token kind)
revealed a problem in the C++ generated headers: they are not
self-contained. With this file:

static int toknum = 0;
return input[toknum++];
}
int
main (int argc, char const* argv[])
{
yy::parser p;
return p.parse ();
}
the generated header fails to compile cleanly (foo.cc just #includes
the generated header):
