I can offer a few references later than this:


Fischer CN, LeBlanc RJ
                Crafting a compiler
Benjamin-Cummings, 1988.
[Ch 17, 688-721, discusses syntactic error recovery and repair.]


Fischer CN, Mauney J
                A simple, fast and effective LL(1) repair algorithm
Acta Inf. 29, 2 (April 1992), 109-120.


Grune D, Jacobs CJH
                A programmer-friendly LL(1) parser generator
Software - Practice and Experience 18,1 (Jan 1988), 29-38
[Error handling based on Roehrich, Acta Inf. 13, 2 (1980), and follow sets]


Mauney J, Fischer CN
                Determining the extent of lookahead in syntactic error repair
ACM TOPLAS 10, 3 (1988), 456-469.


Also my paper (submitted for publication)
A practical minimum distance method for syntax error handling
which is available by anonymous ftp from ftp.dcs.warwick.ac.uk
in the directory /people/J.A.Dain
in (gzipped) LaTeX and PostScript: mindist.tex.gz mindist.ps.gz
