That was easy.  I added a new spec to the .wy files that allowed
per-grammaer specification of the shift/reduce conflicts.

But after I did that I noticed this in comp.el:

(defcustom wisent-expected-conflicts nil
  "If non-nil suppress the warning about shift/reduce conflicts.
It is a decimal integer N that says there should be no warning if
there are N shift/reduce conflicts and no reduce/reduce conflicts.  A
warning is given if there are either more or fewer conflicts, or if
there are any reduce/reduce conflicts."
  :group 'wisent
  :type '(choice (const nil) integer))

So somebody has struggled with this before, apparently.  :-/  But since
that variable is not a per-grammar setting, it doesn't seem very
useful..
