[PATCH 1/4] Create new and use new print_error that uses printf style formatting.

John Bonesio bones at secretlab.ca
Thu Oct 21 08:44:58 EST 2010


yyerror is meant to be called by the parser internal code, and it's interface
is limited. Instead create and call a new error message routine that allows
formatted strings to be used.

yyerror uses the new routine so error formatting remains consistent.
