OK.

What are you hoping to simplify?  I'm now implementing static and type
qualifiers in parameter array declarators - which I think will finish the
C99 syntax, albeit with plenty of semantics left to do and with the
details of the grammar needing to be checked against C99 - so once this is
done (with testcases) might be a good time for cleanups and
simplifications, given that the grammar should then be essentially
complete.
