Do any of you know of any published work that gives sensible guidelines
as to how to figure out and eliminate shift/reduce and reduce/reduce
conflicts in LR and LALR grammars?  I need to give some guidance to
students who'll be using YACC and will be tripping over the problems.
I know a few heuristics, but was hoping to reference something rather
than having to write something.
