Summary 0001099: the wordlist production should accept reserved words but as currently written it does not
Description the production

wordlist: wordlist WORD
        | WORD
        ;

currently does not have a rule in action comments, so rule 1 applies to convert TOKEN to WORD. However, for any reserved word, that reserved word identifier results, not WORD, so any reserved word cannot be in wordlist, as currently written.

This is of course wrong, as this example input shows:

for foobar in if; do:; done

This should be accepted, and existing implementations such as dash and bash do, but according to the current standard, it would be incorrect.
Desired Action Change to:

wordlist: wordlist WORD /* TOKEN always yields WORD here*/
        | WORD /* TOKEN always yields WORD here*/
        ;
Tags No tags attached.
