Dear Netters,
dear Bob Corbett (if you are listening),

I have a problem with BISON (no version number to find, most files are
of 02oct88) adapted for ugly MS-DOS. I use it since 1988 with no real
trouble, but now my grammar has grown to a point where BISON states:
"internal error, map_goto". The problem is with the MS-DOS version only,
I work around the problem by using a friends UNIX-machine, but would be
happy to get the bug fixed.

The map_goto()-function seems not to be the real problem, it only looks
up a state in the array "from_state", that does not contain that state
in the expected offset area. (Search is for state 231, area contains states
240 up to about 700).

I think the problem has to do either with int/word-sizes under MS-DOS or
with memory-model (I use large model, with huge model nothing works
at all [for what punished intel, bim and microsaft us so hard?]). As I
would need month to understand how bison works (though it is comfortable
to use), I am asking for HELP.

If more info is requiered, to help me, I will mail, what you need.

Thanks in advance
