Thanks for the bug report.  Actually, the semicolon is supposed to be
missing.  This is valid syntax in GNU C for a label attribute, but g++
rejects it, due to what I assume is a compiler bug.

We have worked around this problem in Bison test version 1.875a; please
give it a try.  You can get it from:
