RITEM. Note that it must be able to code symbol numbers as
positive number, and the negation of rule numbers as negative
numbers.
Adjust all dependencies (pretty many).
* src/reduce.c (rule): Remove this `short *' pointer: use
item_number_t.
* src/system.h (MINSHORT, MAXSHORT): Remove.
Include `limits.h'.
Adjust dependencies to using SHRT_MAX and SHRT_MIN.
(shortcpy): Remove.
(MAXTABLE): Move to...
* src/output.c (MAXTABLE): here.
(prepare_rules): Use output_int_table to output rhs.
* data/bison.simple, data/bison.c++: Adjust.
* tests/torture.at (Big triangle): Move the limit from 254 to
500.
* tests/regression.at (Web2c Actions): Ajust.
Trying with bigger grammars shows various phenomena: at 3000 (28Mb
of grammar file) bison is killed by my system, at 2000 (12Mb) bison
passes, but produces negative #line number, once fixed, GCC is
killed while compiling 14Mb, at 1500 (6.7 Mb of grammar, 8.2Mb of
C), it passes.
* src/state.h (state_h): Code input lines on ints, not shorts.
