This change was made by applying emacs' untabify function to
nearly all files in Bison's repository. Required tabs in make
files, ChangeLog, regexps, and test code were manually skipped.
Other notable exceptions and changes are listed below.
* bootstrap: Skip because we sync this with gnulib.
* data/m4sugar/foreach.m4
* data/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4: Skip because we sync these with
Autoconf.
* djgpp: Skip because I don't know how to test djgpp properly, and
this code appears to be unmaintained anyway.
* README-hacking (Hacking): Specify that tabs should be avoided
where not required.

This cleans up our previous fixes for a bug whereby Bison
discarded `.field' in `$-1.field'. The previous fixes were less
restrictive about where a dash could appear in an identifier, but
the restrictions were hard to explain. That bug was reported and
this final fix was originally suggested by Paul Hilfinger. This
also fixes a remaining bug reported by Paul Eggert whereby Bison
parses `%token ID -123' as `%token ID - 123' and handles `-' as an
identifier. Now, `-' cannot be an identifier. Discussed in
threads beginning at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2011-01/msg00000.html>,
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2011-01/msg00004.html>.
* NEWS (2.5): Update entry describing the dash extension to
grammar symbol names. Also, move that entry before the named
references entry because the latter mentions the former.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Symbol): Update documentation for symbol
names. As suggested by Paul Eggert, mention the effect of periods
and dashes on named references.
(Decl Summary): Update documentation for unquoted %define values,
which, as a side effect, can no longer start with dashes either.
* src/scan-code.l (id): Implement.
* src/scan-gram.l (id): Implement.
* tests/actions.at (Exotic Dollars): Extend test group to exercise
bug reported by Paul Hilfinger.
* tests/input.at (Symbols): Update test group, and extend to

consistent. Improve discussion of using LALR for GLR.
* NEWS (2.5): Add entry for LAC, and mention LAC in entry for
other corrections to verbose syntax error messages.

* data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): In a verbose syntax error
message while in a consistent state with a default action (which
must be an error action given that yysyntax_error is being

drop the unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead.
Moreover, handle that internally instead of returning 1 to tell
the caller to do it. With that meaning of 1 gone, renumber
return codes more usefully.
(yyparse, yypush_parse): Update yysyntax_error usage. Most
importantly, set yytoken to YYEMPTY when there's no lookahead.
* data/glr.c (yyreportSyntaxError): As in yacc.c, don't drop the
unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* data/lalr1.cc (yy::parser::parse): If there's no lookahead,
pass yyempty_ not yyla.type to yysyntax_error_.
(yy::parser::yysyntax_error_): Again, don't drop the unexpected
token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* data/lalr1.java (YYParser::parse): If there's no lookahead,
set yytoken to yyempty_ before invoking yysyntax_error.
(YYParser::yysyntax_error): Again, don't drop the unexpected
token unless there actually is no lookahead.
* tests/conflicts.at (parse.error=verbose and consistent
errors): Extend test group to further reveal how the previous
use of the simple "syntax error" message was too general. Test
yacc.c, glr.c, lalr1.cc, and lalr1.java. No longer an expected

* 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)
* NEWS (2.4.3): Document fix.
* src/complain.c (error_message): Extend to handle incomplete
error messages so warn and warn_at can be used in more cases.
* src/gram.c (grammar_rules_useless_report): Use warn_at so that
-Werror is always obeyed.
* src/reduce.c (reduce_print): Use warn so that the "warnings
being treated as errors" message is printed consistently before
the first warning message. This makes testing easier.
* tests/local.at (AT_BISON_WERROR_MSG): New macro.
(AT_BISON_CHECK_NO_XML): Extend to check -Werror and
--warnings=error when warnings appear in bison's stderr.

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.
(yydoAction): Remove comment, now obsolete.
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.
(yyimmediate): New table.
* src/gram.h (struct rule): Add is_predicate field.
* src/output.c (user_actions_output): Use b4_predicate_case for
predicates.

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.
* data/lalr1.cc (YYRHSLOC): New.
(YYLLOC_DEFAULT): Use it.
* data/glr.cc: If location_type was user defined, do not include
location.hh, and do not produce location.hh and position.hh.
* tests/calc.at (YYLLOC_DEFAULT): Use YYRHSLOC.
Check that glr.cc supports user defined location_type.
* NEWS: Document this.
That is, keep them as warnings because that should be sufficient
to satisfy POSIX without creating backward compatibility issues.

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.

(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 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.

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
