        m4: use a safer pattern to enable/disable output
        Work on some other areas of Bison revealed that some macros expanded
        to be expanded only once were actually expanded several times.  This
        was due to the fact that changecom was not properly restored each
        time, and macro names appearing in comments were then expanded.

        changecom()/changecom(#).

        yacc.c, glr.c: check and fix the display of locations
        In some case, negative column number could be displayed.
        Make YY_LOCATION_PRINT similar to bison's own implementation of

        yacc.c: always initialize yylloc
        The initial location might be used if the parser starts by an empty
        reduction, so really ensure proper initialization of the initial
        location.  The previous approach fails for PostgreSQL, which uses

        glr.cc, yacc.c: initialize yylloc properly
        There are several issues to address here.  One is that yylloc should
        be initialized when possible.  Another is that the push parser needs
        to update yypushed_loc when the user modified it.  And if the parser
        starts by a reduction of an empty, it uses the first location on the
        stack, which, therefore, must also be initialized to this initial
        location.

        This is getting complex, especially since because initializing a
        global (impure interface) is different from initializing a local
        variable.  To simplify, the local yylloc is not initialized during its
        definition.

        location after the user initial action.

        location is correct.

        yacc.c: initialize yylval and yylloc.
        When generating a pure push parser, the initialization of yylval and
        yylloc may not be visible to the compiler.  With warnings enabled, GCC
        4.3.6, 4.4.7, 4.5.4, and 4.6.3 report uninitialized uses of
        yylval/yylloc.  Using local pragmas to disable these warnings is not
        supported before 4.6, and 4.6 does not support it properly.  So
        initialize yylval and yylloc at their definition.  Reported by Peter
        Simons.  See

        Tests are running without -O since
        f377f69fec28013c79db4efe12bbb9d48987fb2c because some warnings (about
        yylval not being initialized) show only when GCC is given -O2.  The
        previous patch fixes the warnings. Run the test suite with compiler
        options unmodified.

        not appear to be a problem.  But, at least to make it simpler to
        change PERL on the make command line, check for perl in configure.

        graphs: style: use left justification for states
        The label text of nodes is centered "by default" (by the use of '\n' as
        a line feed). This gives bad readability to the grammar rules shown in
        state nodes, a left justification is much nicer. This is done by using '\l'
        as the line feed.

        In order to allow \l in the DOT file, changes to the quoting system seem
        necessary.

        warnings: avoid warnings from clang
        Fix the following warning

        This is Apple clang version 3.1 (tags/Apple/clang-318.0.61).

        * data/c.m4 (b4_table_value_equals): Use (!!(A == B)) instead of (A == B)
        to avoid this warning.
        Any reasonable compiler should generate the same code.
        * src/uniqstr.h (UNIQSTR_EQ): Likewise.
        * data/glr.c (LONGJMP): abort after longjmp to pacify clang.

        tests: no longer disable -O compiler options
        Tests are running without -O since
        f377f69fec28013c79db4efe12bbb9d48987fb2c because some warnings (about
        yylval not being initialized) show only when GCC is given -O2.  The
        previous patch fixes the warnings. Run the test suite with compiler
        options unmodified.

        * tests/atlocal.in (O0CFLAGS, O0CXXFLAGS): Remove, use CFLAGS and
        CXXFLAGS.

        * data/yacc.c (YY_IGNORE_MAYBE_UNINITIALIZED_BEGIN)
        (YY_IGNORE_MAYBE_UNINITIALIZED_END, YYLVAL_INITIALIZE):
        New macros.  Use them to suppress an unwanted GCC diagnostic.

        * tests/c++.at (Exception safety): Don't use swap here, it
        is useless.
        Cover more test cases: yyerror, YYERROR, YYABORT, and
        error recovery.
        (Object): Instead of just keeping a counter of instances, keep
        a list of them.

        option.
        On 'p', throw an exception from the %printer.
        * data/lalr1.cc (yyparse): Do not display the values we discard, as it
        uses %printer, which might have thrown the exception.

2012-10-06  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

        lalr1.cc: check (and fix) %initial-action exception safety

        the stack, as at the beginning, size is 0.
        * tests/c++.at (Exception safety): Check exception safety in
        %initial-action.

2012-10-06  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

        block that cleans the stack and the lookahead.

2012-10-06  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

2012-10-06  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

        lalr1.cc: don't leave macros define to nothing
        * data/lalr1.cc (YY_SYMBOL_PRINT, YY_REDUCE_PRINT, YY_STACK_PRINT):
        Define to something so that, for instance, "if (foo) YY_SYMBOL_PRINT"
        is valid even when !YYDEBUG.

2012-10-06  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

        build: look for Perl in configure.
        Bison uses "/usr/bin/perl" or "perl" in several places, and it does
        not appear to be a problem.  But, at least to make it simpler to
        change PERL on the make command line, check for perl in configure.

        * configure.ac (PERL): New.

        errors: indent "invalid value for %define" context
        This is the continuation of the work on the readability of errors
            context.

        For example, what used to be:
          input.y:1.9-29: invalid value for %define variable 'foo' : 'bar'
          input.y:1.9-29: accepted value: 'most'

        is now:
          input.y:1.9-29: invalid value for %define variable 'foo' : 'bar'
          input.y:1.9-29:     accepted value: 'most'

        For example, what used to be:
          input.y:2.9-11: %define variable 'var' redefined
          input.y:1.9-11: previous definition

        is now:

          input.y:1.9-11:     previous definition

        * src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_define_insert): Use

        * tests/input.at: Apply this change.

2012-09-26  Theophile Ranquet  <ranquet@lrde.epita.fr>

        errors: indent "symbol redeclaration" context
        This is the continuation of the work on the readability of errors
        context.

        For example, what used to be:
          input.y:5.10-24: %printer redeclaration for <field2>
          input.y:3.11-25: previous declaration

        is now:

        * tests/input.at: Apply this change.

2012-09-26  Theophile Ranquet  <ranquet@lrde.epita.fr>

        errors: indent "result type clash" error context
        This used to be the format of the error report:

          input.y:6.5-10: result type clash on merge function 'merge': [...]
          input.y:2.4-9: previous declaration

        In order to distinguish the actual error from the context provided, we
        rather this new output:

          input.y:6.5-10: result type clash on merge function 'merge': [...]
          input.y:2.4-9:     previous declaration

        Another patch will introduce an "error: " prefix to all non-indented
        lines, giving yet better readability to the reports.

        * src/complain.h (SUB_INDENT): Move to here.
        * src/reader.c (record_merge_function_type): Use complain_at_indent to
        output with increased indentation level.

        api.prefix: do not use #define to handle YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL etc.

          #if (defined YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL && YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL)

        since, of course YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL is defined.  Instead we could
        define YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL as PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL only when the
        later is defined, but let's avoid stacking CPP on top of M4: rather, use

          #if (defined PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL && PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL)

2012-07-04  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

        api.prefix: also rename YYDEBUG.
        The testsuite in master has shown weird errors for the "Mulitple
        Parsers" tests: the caller of p5.parse() received some apparently
        random value, while tracing p5.parse() showed that the function was
        consistently returning 0.

        It happens when mixing several parser headers, some generated without
        %debug, others with.  In particular the C++ parser was generated with
        %debug, i.e., with:

          #ifndef YYDEBUG
          # define YYDEBUG 1
          #endif

        and compiled separatedly.  Yet, its header was included after the one
        of another parser, this time without %debug, i.e., with

          #ifndef YYDEBUG
          # define YYDEBUG 0
          #endif

        in its header.  As a result, the parser was compiled with YYDEBUG set,
        but its header was used without.  Since the layout of the objects are
        then completely different, boom.

        Therefore, do not change the value of YYDEBUG.  Rather, use it as a
        default value for <API.PREFIX>DEBUG.

        maint: fix comment typos
        Using http://github.com/lyda/misspell-check, massage its
        output into sed commands to perform the suggested changes.
        Initially, I filtered out the THRU->Through changes, because
        that failed to retain capitalization in the grammar token.
        Instead, do this manually, beforehand:

        sed -i s/THRU/THROUGH/ tests/existing.at
        git ls-files|misspellings -f -|perl -nl \

        Some versions of Flex, possibly modified by the distribution package

2012-03-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

        glr: do not use locations when they are not requested
        When the test suite runs with -O2 and warnings enabled, G++
        complains of locations being used, but not initialized.
        The simplest is to not use locations.

        * data/glr.c (b4_locuser_formals, b4_locuser_args): New.
        Use them when locations should not be used.
        Use b4_locations_if where appropriate.
        (yyuserAction): Modify the order to the arguments to make
        it more alike the other routines, and to make use of
        b4_locuser_args simpler.

2012-03-31  Akim Demaille  <akim@lrde.epita.fr>

        c++: use nullptr for C++11.
        C++11 introduces "nullptr" which plays the role of C's NULL, in
        replacement of "0".  Fix the C++ skeletons to avoid warnings about
        uses of "0" in place of "nullptr", and improve C skeletons to also use
        this "nullptr" when compiled with a C++11 compiler.

        * configure.ac: More C++ warnings.
        * NEWS (2.5.1): Document this.
        * data/c++.m4, data/c.m4 (b4_null_define): New.
        (b4_null): Use YY_NULL instead of 0.
        * data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/location.cc, data/yacc.c:
        Call b4_null_define/b4_null where appropriate.
        Use YY_NULL instead of NULL.
        * data/location.cc (initialize): Accept a default argument,
        YY_NULL.
        * tests/actions.at, tests/calc.at: Adjust.

        * data/glr.c, lib/libiberty.h, src/system.h (__attribute__):
        Do not disable it when __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, as, for
        instance, it disables the __attribute__((unused)) which
        protects us from some compiler warnings.
        This was already done elsewhere in Bison, in 2001, see
        4a0d89369599a2cea01f4fbdf791f426a02cb5a3.

        by the C and C++ compilers.
        Don't AC_SUBST the variables passed to gl_WARN_ADD: it
        does it for us.
        (WARN_CFLAGS_TEST, WARN_CXXFLAGS_TEST): Don't aggregate
        $WARN_CFLAGS and $WARN_CXXFLAGS in them now, leave it
        to atlocal.in.

        We used to pass "CC=$CXX" as command line argument,
        but it was not possible to adjust CFLAGS accordingly
        in atlocal, since it is loaded before assignments on

        do not ignore errors like ENOSPC,EIO when writing to stdout
        Standard output was never explicitly closed, so we could not
        detect failure.  Thus, bison would ignore the errors of writing
        to a full file system and getting an I/O error on write, but only
        for standard output, e.g., for --print-localedir, --print-datadir,
        --help and some verbose output.
        Now, "bison --print-datadir > /dev/full" reports the write failure:
        bison: write error: No space left on device
        Before, it would exit 0 with no diagnostic, implying success.
        This is not an issue for "--output=-" or the other FILE-accepting
        command-line options, because unlike most other GNU programs,
        an output file argument of "-" is treated as the literal "./-",
        rather than standard output.
        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add closeout.
        * src/main.c: Include "closeout.h".
        Use atexit to ensure we close stdout.

        tests: port to Solaris 10 'diff -u'
        * tests/regression.at (parse-gram.y: LALR = IELR): Port to Solaris 10,
        where "diff -u X X" outputs "No differences encountered"
        instead of outputting nothing.  Reported by Tomohiro Suzuki in
        <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2012-01/msg00101.html>.

        build: avoid possibly-replaced fprintf in liby-source, yyerror.c
        * lib/yyerror.c (yyerror): Use fputs and fputc rather than fprintf
        with a mere "%s\n" format.  Always return 0 now, on the assumption
        that the return value was never used anyway.
        Don't include <config.h> after all.  This avoids a problem
        reported by Thiru Ramakrishnan in
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-bison/2011-11/msg00000.html
        * cfg.mk: Exempt lib/yyerror.c from the sc_require_config_h_first test.

        quote consistently and make tests pass with new quoting from gnulib
        Updating to gnulib pulled in new quote and quotarg modules,
        by which quoting is now done like 'this' rather than `this'.
        That change induces many "make check" test failures.  This change
        adapts code and tests so that "make check" passes once again.

        build: update gnulib and autoconf submodules to latest (cherry picked from commit 728415f885e5cb8e518c8576fa6e1f541e384130)

        build: manually update bootstrap from gnulib, and adapt
        Updating to the latest bootstrap from gnulib involves more of a
        change than usual, and updating to the latest gnulib would involve
        its own set of challenges with the upcoming quoting changes, so
        we update bootstrap manually and separately.
        * bootstrap: Update from gnulib.
        * lib/Makefile.am: Initialize more variables to empty, so that gnulib.mk
        can append to them with "+=".
        * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_mk_hook): Remove.  No longer honored.
        (gnulib_tool_option_extras): Generate gnulib.mk.
