Subject: [PATCH] Change yyerror to use stdarg so we can give more descriptive errors.
Date: Fri, 15 Oct 2010 17:33:04 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101016003239.3900.85967.stgit@riker> (raw)

The subject pretty much says it all. The patch is to allow dtc to give more
descriptive errors by having yyerror take a variable number of parameters
printf style.

- John
