Comment(by devans@…):

 >
 > These comments--taken from a posting to the openvrml-develop mailing
 list--apply to '''trunk''' OpenVRML; the situation with the 0.17.''x''
 series can be expected to be significantly worse. (Note that OpenVRML
 0.17.''x'' doesn't even have a file named `parse_vrml.cpp`.)

 Yes, I misquoted the file name.  The file where I'm having trouble is
 vrml97node.cpp.

 0.17.11 using the Portfile under development in this ticket.  If you like,
 I'll give it a try using your
 trunk code.

 includes Spirit grammars nearly as large as OpenVRML's.

 I'm sure that's true.  I'm just concerned that the amount of resources
 necessary to build this port successfully
 may put off some people who would otherwise adopt it.  I know you've put a
 lot of work into this problem
 and I hope you'll continue to do so.
