+*** A skeleton for the D programming language
+
+ Since a few releases, Bison ships with a stealth experimental skeleton:
+ lalr1.d. It was first contributed by Oliver Mangold, based on Paolo
+ Bonzini's lalr1.java, and was cleaned and improved thanks to H. S. Teoh.
+
+ However, for lack of a genuine maintainer, committed to supporting this
+ skeleton (improving, testsing, documenting, etc.), this feature might be
+ DOA.
+
+ The lalr1.d skeleton *is functional*, and works well, as demonstrated in
+ examples/d/calc.d. Please try it, enjoy it, and... commit to support it.

%define variable (disabled by default).
+*** Clean up
+
+ Several new compiler warnings in the generated output have been avoided.
+ Some unused features are no longer emitted. Cleaner generated code in
+ general.
+
+** Bug Fixes
+
+*** Crashes when reporting verbose error messages
+
+ When using %nonassoc, in some situations extremely difficult to reach on
+ purpose (so virtually impossible by accident---no bug report was ever made
+ about it), the generated parsers could crash. This is fixed.
