You might consider using a more powerful compiler generation toolset.
The Eli Compiler Construction System
(http://www.cs.colorado.edu/~eliuser) will construct a parser from
straightforward EBNF (no funny yacc-like syntax or other information
required). It will also automatically construct an abstract syntax
tree for which you can provide attribute grammar computations that
perform arbitrary computations over the constructed tree.
