f39ab2869c 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
fixes.
* lib/local.mk (lib_libbison_a_SOURCES): Remove subpipe.h and
subpipe.c.
* 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.

Stop equating LR(0) with nondeterminism and LALR(1) with
determinism.  That is, if all states are consistent, then LR(0)
tables are deterministic.  On the other hand, LALR(1) tables
might be nondeterministic before conflict resolution, and GLR

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.

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 (parse.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.
