If you can do dynamic type checking, it suffices to write rules (as in the 
Bison manual calculator example):

expr:
    expr "op0" expr
  | expr "op1" expr
  ...
;

And then add precedence rules:

%left ","

%nonassoc "then"
%nonassoc "else"

%right "≔"

It works fine to resolve dangling "else" with precedences as well. The normal 
way to break precedences is with matched pairs () [] {} etc.
