I am especially worried when you include the header in itself,
i.e., if you include it in %code requires or provides.  The
delicate part is that the user is allowed to provide information
before the definition of the semantic value type, and after it.
I remember having spent time on such issues, and I just live a
happier life if I don't have to include it at all, since the
parser does it for me at the right place.

Including from %code top or %code is ok.  Useless, but ok.

However, we have double-inclusion guards, and now I fail to see
how things could possibly go wrong.  So you are probably safe
in the other %code sections, but still, I would avoid it.

I don't understand what you mean.  We generate consistently
parser.tab.{hh,cc} or parser.{hh,cc}, but nothing mixed.  We
generate parser.tab.{hh,cc} by default, because I was too stupid
when I introduced the C++ skeleton to allow myself not to follow
the idiotic and historic naming scheme.
