Ah ... I see, the merge happened about the time I started fiddling
with this stuff, when I was too busy to spend much time seeing what
was happening in the real world for something that was basically a toy
for me.

In that case, I don't see any particular reason why serious users of
parser technology would be interested in synfl at this point; there
are a lot of advantages to sticking with the tried-and-true.  Not to
mention that the wisent parser is undoubtedly a lot better optimized.

By the way, it was pretty damn rude of you to strip ONLY the
xemacs-design address, given that the thread was cross-posted from
there, and cedet users presumably already know how semantic works.
