This is a known problem: if there is a grammar error in the last two tokens, the yacc skeleton can't cope. Its rule is to skip down three tokens before attempting error recovery, but instead it sees EOF and stops parsing, causing the last token or two to be quietly ignored. Another result of abusing error recovery. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan http://www.reutershealth.com Charles li reis, nostre emperesdre magnes, Set anz totz pleinz ad ested in Espagnes.
