I had to change a couple of the "posn += 2"'s back to "++posn"
(there is a "++posn" at the end of the loop so it is only necessary
to increment by N-1).  With that change, it still works on my version
of bison.  Please check it out on yours.

I really wish Bison had a better error reporting system than
"sprintf unparsable English junk into a buffer and call yyerror". :-(

Cheers,

Rhys.
