Using -I./lib instead of -Ilib fixes the problem.

* Makefile.am (AM_CPPFLAGS): Use -I./lib instead of -Ilib.
* tests/conflicts.at (AT_CONSISTENT_ERRORS_CHECK): Move AT_SETUP/AT_CLEANUP
into it, so that we don't skip non Java tests following a test case in Java.
A static analysis tool reports that some callers of symbol_list_n_get
might get NULL and not handle it properly. This is not the case, yet
we can suppress this pattern.
Reported by Mike Sullivan.
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2013-12/msg00027.html>
* src/symlist.c (symbol_list_n_get): Actually it is never called
to return 0. Enforce this postcondition via aver.
(symbol_list_n_type_name_get): Simplify accordingly. In particular,
discards a (translated) useless error message.
* src/symlist.h: Adjust documentation.
* src/scan-code.l: Style change.
When using variants, destructors generate invalid code.
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2014-09/msg00005.html>
Reported by Michael Catanzaro.
* data/c++.m4 (~basic_symbol): b4_symbol_foreach works on yysym:
define it.
* tests/c++.at (Variants): Check it.
The previous patches ensure that symbols (symbol_type and
stack_symbol_type) can be empty, cleared, and their emptiness can be
checked. Therefore, yyempty, which codes whether yyla is empty or
not, is now useless.
In C skeletons (e.g., yacc.c), the fact that the lookahead is empty is
coded by "yychar = YYEMPTY", which is exactly what this patch
restores, since yychar/yytoken corresponds to yyla.type.
* data/lalr1.cc (yyempty): Remove.
Rather, depend on yyla.empty ().
During error recovery, when discarding the lookeahead, we don't
destroy it, which is caught by parse.assert assertions.
Reported by Antonio Silva Correia.
With an analysis and suggested patch from Michel d'Hooge.
<http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?108481>
* tests/c++.at (Variants): Strengthen the test to try syntax errors
with discarded lookahead.
The symbol destructor is currently the only means to clear a symbol.
Unfortunately during error recovery we might have to clear the
lookahead, which is a local variable (yyla) that has not yet reached
its end of scope.
Rather that duplicating the code to destroy a symbol, or rather than
destroying and recreating yyla, let's provide a means to clear a
symbol.
Reported by Antonio Silva Correia, with an analysis from Michel d'Hooge.

* data/c++.m4, data/lalr1.cc (basis_symbol::clear, by_state::clear)
(by_type::clear): New.
(basic_symbol::~basic_symbol): Use clear.
Instead of storing and comparing pointers to names of types, store
pointers to the typeids, and compares the typeids.

* data/variant.hh (yytname_): Replace with...
(yytypeid_): this.
There are no support for += between locations, and some comments are wrong.

* tests/c++.at: Check.
Bison supports a union tag, for obscure reasons. But it does a poor
job at it, especially since Bison 3.0.
Reported by Stephen Cameron and Tobias Frost.
It did not ensure that the name was not given several times. An easy
way to do this is to make the %union tag be handled as a %define
variable, as they cannot be defined several times.
Since Bison 3.0, the synclines were wrongly placed, resulting in
invalid code. Addressing this issue, because of the way the union tag
was stored (as a code muscle), would have been tedious. Unless we
rather define the %union tag as a %percent variable, whose synclines
are easier to manipulate.
So replace the b4_union_name muscle by the api.value.union.name
%define variable, document, and check.
* data/bison.m4: Make sure that api.value.union.name has a keyword value.
* data/c++.m4: Make sure that api.value.union.name is not defined.
* data/c.m4 (b4_union_name): No longer use it, use api.value.union.name.
* doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Document it.
* src/parse-gram.y (union_name): No longer define b4_uion_name, but
api.value.union.name.
* tests/input.at (Redefined %union name): New.
* tests/synclines.at (%union name syncline): New.
* tests/types.at: Check named %unions.
Reported by Rich Wilson.
* data/c.m4 (b4_symbol_type_register): Append to b4_union_members,
not b4_user_union_members.
The latter invokes the former, but it is the former which is reinitialized
to empty by b4_value_type_setup_union.
* tests/types.at: Check it.
This reveals another bug, this time in the case of glr.c parsers.
* data/glr.c: Generate the header file before the implementation file,
to be sure that the setup is run before what depends on it.
clang, with -DNDEBUG and -Werror fails on some functions that might
lack a return. This is because aver is just another assert, discarded
with -DNDEBUG. So use abort.
* src/muscle-tab.c, src/scan-skel.l: here.
* doc/bison.texi: Add '@documentencoding UTF-8'; needed since the
manual contains UTF-8 characters. This will cause the .info files
to contain UTF-8 quotes and the like, which should be OK nowadays.
Add @documentlanguage while we're at it.
Currently, we do not install the various examples extracted from the
documentation. Let's do it, as they are useful starting points.
* configure.ac: When --enable-gcc-warnings is set, enable ENABLE_GCC_WARNINGS.
* examples/extexi: No longer issue synclines by default.
* examples/local.mk: Except if ENABLE_GCC_WARNINGS.
* examples/calc++/local.mk, examples/mfcalc/local.mk,
* examples/rpcalc/local.mk: Install the example files.
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz as "second problem" in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2013-09/msg00015.html
* bootstrap.conf: We need the "unlink" module.
* src/files.h, src/files.c (unlink_generated_sources): New.
* src/output.c: Use it.
* tests/output.at: Check the case of late errors.
* src/files.h, src/files.c (output_file_name_check): Take an additional
argument to record whether a file is a source or report file.
* src/files.c (generated_file): New.
(file_names, file_names_count): Replace with...
(generated_files, generated_files_size): these.
* src/scan-skel.l: Adjust.
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz as "second problem" in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2013-09/msg00015.html
One problem is that some errors are caught early, before the
generation of output files, while others can only be detected
afterwards (since, for instance, skeletons can raise errors
themselves).
This will be addressed in two steps: early errors do not generate
source files at all, while later errors will remove the files that
have already been generated.
* src/scan-skel.l (yyout): Open to /dev/null when there are errors.
* tests/output.at (AT_CHECK_FILES): Factored out of...
(AT_CHECK_OUTPUT): this.
Fuse the "SHELLIO" argument in the "FLAGS" one.
Use $5 to denote the expected exit status.
Add a test case for early errors.
