The master branch is being actively developed, so it could add
warnings and errors as we decide they should be useful.

Thanks.  I attach the file below, so that it gets recorded in this
discussion.

The problem is here:

    ('ns-esc-8-bit
     (yaml--frame "ns-esc-8-bit"
       (yaml--all (yaml--chr ?\x)  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                  (yaml--rep 2 2
                    (lambda () (yaml--parse-from-grammar 'ns-hex-digit))))))

The ?\x escape expects one or more digits after it.  If you mean the
letter 'x', then you should use ?x, without the escape, I think.

Adding Mattias, who I think worked on those diagnostics.
