It seems to solve the original problem, however there are two other, new
problems.

First, there are two places in the code -- in parse_gram.y and scan-code.l
-- where a new variable is declared in the middle of code, rather than at
the start.  I'm using an older version of GCC (2.95.3, long story) which
happens to object to that.

After some quick line reordering to fix that, all but one test succeeded.
The new problem is #133, which tests that a certain parser definition
produces C code containing the line "tests = {{{{{{{{{{}}}}}}}}}};".  The
actual output instead contains "tests = {{{{{{{{{{;};};};};};};};};};};".
