Which tools did you use?

I only know about Delphi/Pascal ports with more or less severe problems:


tplexyacc [tply41, part of FPC], and based on this
dyacclex [Michiel Rook <michiel@grendelproject.nl>]


If any of the authors is interested in fixing bugs, please drop me a
line; at least I remember a grammar from some GNU project, that couldn't
be handled by none of the mentioned tools. After a reduction of the
grammar, the tools disagree e.g. in the number of states etc.
