   Actually, I don't think we want to even try to support native yacc/lex for
   this stuff.  I'd rather see us use bison/flex exclusively.  

   Just my $0.02, Ian has the final say on this.

Actually, I don't really care.  It only matters for developers anyhow.

If it's easy to support yacc and lex, that's OK with me.  If we have
to compromise the existing code, then it's not.  So far, it sounds
like stuff mostly works OK.
