You mean recursive descent—Bison's parsers are pretty decent too.

I would very much like to have your grammar, so that I can check if there is really a danger or not.  It is super unlikely that there is, but I would appreciate to be able to have a closer look.  If you prefer, you can send me your grammar privately, and I promise I won't publish it.
