I am looking at the BNF. Our automatic checker still does not accept
it. A couple of the problems are:
1. There are {} around items which should not have them (I think!)
such as around the attribute in front of a module declaration. I
heard that there was some talk about this issue in the
background. Please let me know if you know anything about this.
2. It is impossible to distinguish just from the syntax between a
hierarchical identifier and a reference to an array element. In
other words it is impossible to tell (just from the syntax) whether
the index is an index into a register or an index into an array of
instances.
I will have more stuff by Monday. Meanwhile I will be attending the
IEC meetings in Austin, so I may not have 100% access to my e-mail.
