I have made a hack.  It would not win a beauty contest and  it seem to
be somehow related to yours. I have tested it under some circumstances but
I gonna do further testing.  Mine seems to work well.  I save the line
number whenever a $<string>, $<number>, $<whatever> is parsed.  If you
have fixed tokens  you dont need the hack (as far as I know).  Tomorrow or
Saturday I gonna  have a patch ready including some critical bugfixes in
the parser.
