I found the following while looking for a logo interpreter for
suns:

This is just a lex and yacc front end (since we had such a
wonderful discussion about whether it was possible to do
this or not a while back!) written by

who is not intending to maintain the grammar, it is just offered
as an example of using lex and yacc on occam. But he hopes someone
out there will produce a back-end someday soon!

I found it on the following machine

wuarchive.wustl.edu               (128.252.135.4)
under mirrors/unix-c/languages

I just tried to check the connection though, and it said
that the disk that holds the archive had just died.

[Despite a note when you connect that the disk for /mirrors has died, the file
/mirrors/unix-c/languages.occam/occam.tar-z is in fact there and contains two
yacc occam parsers. -John]
