The other point is the lex table generated with ocamlyacc comes inside the

As already mentioned in http://caml.inria.fr/archives/200309/msg00047.html
I did that by modifying ocamlyacc. Works pretty well.

I'll put the modified ocamlyacc at
http://astro.uni-tuebingen.de/~goehler/ocamlyacc.tar.gz
Maybe its possible to modify the official ocamlyacc supporting these
features in future.
