The verilog preprocessing language is sufficiently simple
that the parser may be implemented by hand on top of the
lexical analyzer.
In fact, ivlpp was already implemented in this way; relevant
[bison] parser files specified no grammar, and the parser
entry-point (yyparse) was simply an indirect use of the lexical
analyzer (yylex).
Therefore, parse.y has been removed, invocations of yyparse()
have been replaced by yylex(), references to bison generated
files have been removed, and Makefile.in has been updated
accordingly.

Core preprocessor support for writing out and reading precompiled
defines. The preprocessor can read initial precompiled defines from
any number of specified source files, and can write all the defines
into a specified output file.
This patch modifies the preprocessor to handle text macros with
arguments. It also fixes a bug that prevented a `line directive
being issued after a multi-line text macro had been instantiated.
