	 *  where there exists an EOT state.  EOT is like the wildcard so don't
	 *  bother to test any other edges.  Example:

     *          alt7=2;
     *      }
     *      else if ( (input.LA(2)&gt;='0' &amp;&amp; input.LA(2)&lt;='7') ) {
     *           alt7=3;
     *      }
     *      else if ( input.LA(2)=='L'||input.LA(2)=='l' ) {
     *           alt7=3;

     *      else {
     *           alt7=3;
     *      }
     *  }
     *  else error
	 *
     *  Clearly, alt 3 is predicted with extra work since it tests 0..7
	 *  and [lL] before finally realizing that any character is actually
	 *  ok at k=2.
	 *
	 *  A better decision is as follows:
     *
	 *  if ( (input.LA(1)&gt;='1' &amp;&amp; input.LA(1)&lt;='9') ) {
	 *      alt7=1;
	 *  }
	 *  else if ( input.LA(1)=='0' ) {
	 *      if ( input.LA(2)=='X'||input.LA(2)=='x' ) {
	 *          alt7=2;
	 *      }
	 *      else {
	 *          alt7=3;
	 *      }
	 *  }
	 *
	 *  The DFA originally has 3 edges going to the state the predicts alt 3,
	 *  but upon seeing the EOT edge (the "else"-clause), this method
	 *  replaces the old merged label (which would have (0..7|l|L)) with EOT.
	 *  The code generator then leaves alt 3 predicted with a simple else-
	 *  clause. :)
	 *
	 *  The only time the EOT optimization makes no sense is in the Tokens
	 *  rule.  We want EOT to truly mean you have matched an entire token
	 *  so don't bother actually rewinding to execute that rule unless there
	 *  are actions in that rule.  For now, since I am not preventing
	 *  backtracking from Tokens rule, I will simply allow the optimization.

	 *  collect predicates at hoisting depth 0, meaning before any token/char
	 *  have been recognized.  This corresponds, during analysis, to the
	 *  initial DFA start state construction closure() invocation.
	 *
	 *  There are four cases of interest (the last being the usual transition):
	 *
	 *   1. Traverse an edge that takes us to the start state of another
	 *      rule, r.  We must push this state so that if the DFA
	 *      conversion hits the end of rule r, then it knows to continue
	 *      the conversion at state following state that "invoked" r. By
	 *      construction, there is a single transition emanating from a rule
	 *      ref node.
	 *
	 *   2. Reach an NFA state associated with the end of a rule, r, in the
	 *      grammar from which it was built.  We must add an implicit (i.e.,
	 *      don't actually add an epsilon transition) epsilon transition
	 *      from r's end state to the NFA state following the NFA state
	 *      that transitioned to rule r's start state.  Because there are
	 *      many states that could reach r, the context for a rule invocation
	 *      is part of a call tree not a simple stack.  When we fall off end
	 *      of rule, "pop" a state off the call tree and add that state's
	 *      "following" node to d's NFA configuration list.  The context
	 *      for this new addition will be the new "stack top" in the call tree.
	 *
	 *   3. Like case 2, we reach an NFA state associated with the end of a
	 *      rule, r, in the grammar from which NFA was built.  In this case,
	 *      however, we realize that during this NFA&rarr;DFA conversion, no state
	 *      invoked the current rule's NFA.  There is no choice but to add
	 *      all NFA states that follow references to r's start state.  This is
	 *      analogous to computing the FOLLOW(r) in the LL(k) world.  By
	 *      construction, even rule stop state has a chain of nodes emanating
	 *      from it that points to every possible following node.  This case
	 *      is conveniently handled then by the 4th case.
	 *
	 *   4. Normal case.  If p can reach another NFA state q, then add
	 *      q to d's configuration list, copying p's context for q's context.
	 *      If there is a semantic predicate on the transition, then AND it
	 *      with any existing semantic context.
	 *
	 *   Current state p is always added to d's configuration list as it's part
	 *   of the closure as well.
	 *
	 *  When is a closure operation in a cycle condition?  While it is
	 *  very possible to have the same NFA state mentioned twice
	 *  within the same DFA state, there are two situations that
	 *  would lead to nontermination of closure operation:
	 *
	 *  o   Whenever closure reaches a configuration where the same state
	 *      with same or a suffix context already exists.  This catches
	 *      the IF-THEN-ELSE tail recursion cycle and things like
	 *
	 *      a : A a | B ;
	 *
	 *      the context will be $ (empty stack).
	 *
	 *      We have to check
	 *      larger context stacks because of (...)+ loops.  For
	 *      example, the context of a (...)+ can be nonempty if the
	 *      surrounding rule is invoked by another rule:
	 *
	 *      a : b A | X ;
	 *      b : (B|)+ ;  // nondeterministic by the way
	 *
	 *      The context of the (B|)+ loop is "invoked from item
	 *      a : . b A ;" and then the empty alt of the loop can reach back
	 *      to itself.  The context stack will have one "return
	 *      address" element and so we must check for same state, same
	 *      context for arbitrary context stacks.
	 *
	 *      Idea: If we've seen this configuration before during closure, stop.
	 *      We also need to avoid reaching same state with conflicting context.
	 *      Ultimately analysis would stop and we'd find the conflict, but we
	 *      should stop the computation.  Previously I only checked for
	 *      exact config.  Need to check for same state, suffix context
	 * 		not just exact context.
	 *
	 *  o   Whenever closure reaches a configuration where state p
	 *      is present in its own context stack.  This means that
	 *      p is a rule invocation state and the target rule has
	 *      been called before.  NFAContext.MAX_RECURSIVE_INVOCATIONS
	 *      (See the comment there also) determines how many times
	 *      it's possible to recurse; clearly we cannot recurse forever.
	 *      Some grammars such as the following actually require at
	 *      least one recursive call to correctly compute the lookahead:
	 *
	 *      a : L ID R
	 *        | b
	 *        ;
	 *      b : ID
	 *        | L a R
	 *        ;
	 *
	 *      Input L ID R is ambiguous but to figure this out, ANTLR
	 *      needs to go a-&gt;b-&gt;a-&gt;b to find the L ID sequence.

	 *  The NFA decision is therefore syntactically indistinguishable

	 *  deterministic (unless there are semantic predicates; see below).
	 *
	 *  Upon a nondeterministic set of NFA configurations, we should

	 *  by aribitrarily picking the first alternative (this usually
	 *  ends up producing the most natural behavior).  Pick the lowest
	 *  alt number and just turn off all NFA configurations
	 *  associated with the other alts. Rather than remove conflicting
	 *  NFA configurations, I set the "resolved" bit so that future
	 *  computations will ignore them.  In this way, we maintain the

	 *  future DFA conversion operations from pursuing undesirable
	 *  paths.  Remember that we want to terminate DFA conversion as
	 *  soon as we know the decision is deterministic *or*
	 *  nondeterministic.
	 *
	 *  [BTW, I have convinced myself that there can be at most one
	 *  set of nondeterministic configurations in a DFA state.  Only NFA
	 *  configurations arising from the same input sequence can appear
	 *  in a DFA state.  There is no way to have another complete set
	 *  of nondeterministic NFA configurations without another input
	 *  sequence, which would reach a different DFA state.  Therefore,
	 *  the two nondeterministic NFA configuration sets cannot collide
	 *  in the same DFA state.]
	 *
	 *  Consider DFA state {(s|1),(s|2),(s|3),(t|3),(v|4)} where (s|a)
	 *  is state 's' and alternative 'a'.  Here, configuration set
	 *  {(s|1),(s|2),(s|3)} predicts 3 different alts.  Configurations
	 *  (s|2) and (s|3) are "resolved", leaving {(s|1),(t|3),(v|4)} as
	 *  items that must still be considered by the DFA conversion
	 *  algorithm in DFA.findNewDFAStatesAndAddDFATransitions().
	 *
	 *  Consider the following grammar where alts 1 and 2 are no
	 *  problem because of the 2nd lookahead symbol.  Alts 3 and 4 are
	 *  identical and will therefore reach the rule end NFA state but
	 *  predicting 2 different alts (no amount of future lookahead
	 *  will render them deterministic/separable):
	 *
	 *  a : A B
	 *    | A C
	 *    | A
	 *    | A
	 *    ;
	 *
	 *  Here is a (slightly reduced) NFA of this grammar:
	 *
	 *  (1)-A-&gt;(2)-B-&gt;(end)-EOF-&gt;(8)
	 *   |              ^
	 *  (2)-A-&gt;(3)-C----|
	 *   |              ^
	 *  (4)-A-&gt;(5)------|
	 *   |              ^
	 *  (6)-A-&gt;(7)------|
	 *
	 *  where (n) is NFA state n.  To begin DFA conversion, the start
	 *  state is created:
	 *
	 *  {(1|1),(2|2),(4|3),(6|4)}
	 *
	 *  Upon A, all NFA configurations lead to new NFA states yielding
	 *  new DFA state:
	 *
	 *  {(2|1),(3|2),(5|3),(7|4),(end|3),(end|4)}
	 *
	 *  where the configurations with state end in them are added
	 *  during the epsilon closure operation.  State end predicts both
	 *  alts 3 and 4.  An error is reported, the latter configuration is
	 *  flagged as resolved leaving the DFA state as:
	 *
	 *  {(2|1),(3|2),(5|3),(7|4|resolved),(end|3),(end|4|resolved)}
	 *
	 *  As NFA configurations are added to a DFA state during its
	 *  construction, the reachable set of labels is computed.  Here
	 *  reachable is {B,C,EOF} because there is at least one NFA state
	 *  in the DFA state that can transition upon those symbols.
	 *
	 *  The final DFA looks like:
	 *
	 *  {(1|1),(2|2),(4|3),(6|4)}
	 *              |
	 *              v
	 *  {(2|1),(3|2),(5|3),(7|4),(end|3),(end|4)} -B-&gt; (end|1)
	 *              |                        |
	 *              C                        ----EOF-&gt; (8,3)
	 *              |
	 *              v
	 *           (end|2)
	 *
	 *  Upon AB, alt 1 is predicted.  Upon AC, alt 2 is predicted.
	 *  Upon A EOF, alt 3 is predicted.  Alt 4 is not a viable
	 *  alternative.
	 *
	 *  The algorithm is essentially to walk all the configurations
	 *  looking for a conflict of the form (s|i) and (s|j) for i!=j.
	 *  Use a hash table to track state+context pairs for collisions
	 *  so that we have O(n) to walk the n configurations looking for
	 *  a conflict.  Upon every conflict, track the alt number so
	 *  we have a list of all nondeterministically predicted alts. Also
	 *  track the minimum alt.  Next go back over the configurations, setting
	 *  the "resolved" bit for any that have an alt that is a member of
	 *  the nondeterministic set.  This will effectively remove any alts
	 *  but the one we want from future consideration.
	 *
	 *  See resolveWithSemanticPredicates()
	 *
	 *  AMBIGUOUS TOKENS
	 *
	 *  With keywords and ID tokens, there is an inherit ambiguity in that
	 *  "int" can be matched by ID also.  Each lexer rule has an EOT
	 *  transition emanating from it which is used whenever the end of
	 *  a rule is reached and another token rule did not invoke it.  EOT
	 *  is the only thing that can be seen next.  If two rules are identical

	 *  win.  This means you should put keywords before the ID rule.
	 *  If the DFA state has only one NFA state then there is no issue:
	 *  it uniquely predicts one alt. :)  Problem
	 *  states will look like this during conversion:
	 *
	 *  DFA 1:{9|1, 19|2, 14|3, 20|2, 23|2, 24|2, ...}-&lt;EOT&gt;-&gt;5:{41|3, 42|2}
	 *
	 *  Worse, when you have two identical literal rules, you will see 3 alts
	 *  in the EOT state (one for ID and one each for the identical rules).
