Let me just ask for clarifcation on a point here:
> ISO C Preferred
> ---------------
> All non-C language frontends (cp, java, f, objc, ada)
>
> Traditional C Required
> ----------------------
> C frontend (files named c-*)
So, we can convert the C++ front-end to happy C, but if that code is
later merged into the C front end -- as is the goal, I'm told -- we have
to convert it back to crappy C?
