It looks like the tokens aren’t translated, only the text, so it should not be 
a problem. Unless the translation produces a token.

It should not be too difficult, as it now uses M4. The only problem is when the 
Bison skeleton file is updated, then you have an outdated skeleton file.

But you may develop it as a feature, and then integrate it into Bison yourself, 
or suggest it. The feature might be an option adding an extra argument to 
yyerror with a reference to the error token.
