Thank you!  What you propose is okay.  I might suggest, however, that you 
look in the diffs for dfa.c, misc.c, and yylex.c, and consider removing 
some of the ASCIIisms which are probably unnecessary.  The manner in 
which I made the changes was pure brute force, and there might be a 
better way, but the changes I made there shouldn't hurt anything.
