Are there any versions of lex and/or yacc that are capable of
accepting double-byte character streams as input?

[Yacc doesn't process text, it processes tokens so the character set isn't
much of an issue. Lex is much harder, since all the versions of lex that
I know use 256 byte dispatch tables indexed by character code. This came
up a year ago, suggestions included the plan 9 versions and re2c. -John]
