Description
If there are empty tokens in the LBNF file, several of the back-ends produce invalid lexer specifications. For example:
F. C ::= "" ; G. C ::= "foo" ;
At least the generated Alex and JLex code for this is invalid.
BNFC should consider empty tokens to be errors, or possibly silently convert them to empty tokens lists.
