Out of curiosity, which parser generator is this?; i.e., the one you use 
written by Al Shannon, and since updated? I went digging in my files and 
online, though only cursorily, and found Hyacc <http://hyacc.sourceforge.net/> 
by Xin Chen, which I hadn't previously known about, but was wondering if you 
were referring to it, or something else, maybe the original implementation of 
LR in Fortran 66, e.g.
