Re: Default reductions

| Hi Paul,
| 
| I'm afraid we _have_ to return to this debate about default
| reductions.  A student of mine reported the following problem.

| If you compile the following source from Charles,

Charles-Henri de Boysson is an EPITA student.  EPITA is the school I
work at.  Unfortunately neither of us can work on Bison currently: my
(Computer Science!) school still cannot provide us with CVS access to
the rest of the world.  As a result, we have to stop our ongoing work
on Bison, which includes:

- BackTracking LALR by Charles-Henri de Boysson
- Improvement of the conflict reports by Sébastien Martini, and Bruno Klawatsch
- Java output by Sébastien Serrurier
- C++ output by Robert Anisko
- fixing the various bugs we exhibit.

The lack of access to the Internet is also why EPITA did not make the
long awaited 1.50 release: Paul Eggert kindly did.

I hope that in the near future a solution can be worked out.  If not,
maybe Bison should return to Berkeley...
