As it was, a
cut(~) could scape to calling rules instead of being limited to the enclosing choice, and that produced unexpected outcomes.This set of changes limit the scope of
cutto the nearest choice.For example, this grammar would always fail independently of the input, when it is expected that rule
twohas a chance, and it always succeeds with"something"as output.
