 This may not be a bug, but so much ambiguity can make the parser slow and
 certainly hard to maintain.
 
 i recommend PCCTS.  It's much better at handling ambiguity than bison/flex.
  So if you are going to rewrite the parser, use something like PCCTS.

+Most parse grammars will have conflicts, so this behaviour must not be
+a bug.
+
+reduce/reduce conflicts should eventually be removed, but until the
+parser is not complete, I'm not going to optimize the grammar.
+shift/reduce conflicts are expected, there is even a way to suppress
+this warning (which i'm not using because of the frequent updates atm).
+
+But since the behaviour is well defined for both cases there should
+not be any errors.
