It is exactly like %pure-parser. It does not select a different
skeleton. In fact, %pure-parser uses the yacc.c skeleton.

I put m4 conditionals in yacc.c, and if %pure-parser is set, yacc.c 
outputs a pure parser. This mostly means that yacc.c creates a struct
with all the variables that yyparse needs, and that yyparse does
'pv->yychar' instead of 'yychar'.
