Re: [PATCH] Some string changes/optimizations

Thanks Matt for the nice work :)

Also removed the ST_START_[HEREDOC|NOWDOC] states in the scanner, by doing their work (to catch immediate ending label) in the initial heredoc rule.

This one was in my todo list as well. I think there might be other places where a similar optimization can be done.

Oh, almost forgot a couple things -- for HEAD: updated the yyless() definition to match 5_3 (Nuno didn't get to it yet...), and moved (...)

P.S. (for Marcus?), the ({LABEL}|([']{LABEL}['])|(["]{LABEL}["])) part of the heredoc rule crashed re2c (Windows) until I added the extra ( ), which shouldn't be needed AFAIK and was fine with just 2 alternate matches...

Thanks. I didn't commit the yyless() merge yet because it was crashing re2c. I found it to be related with 2 different bugs in re2c. I've fixed one, but the other is still there. Maybe I should pass the details to Marcus, as I don't have time to fix it myself until the end of the month. Nuno
