	By fiat, we use bison for $(YACC). Trying to accommodate
	different versions didn't work.

	* makefile: Significant cleanup. Replace all ytab* references
	with awkgram.tab.* and simplify definition of YACC.
	* .gitignore: Remove ytab* references.
	* b.c, lex.c, maketab.c, parse.c, run.c: Replace include of ytab.h
	with awkgram.tab.h.
	* lib.c, main.c, tran.c: Remove include of ytab.h, wasn't needed.

	With scalpel, tweasers, magnifying glass and bated breath,
	borrow code from the NetBSD version of nawk to fix the years-old
	bug whereby decrementing the value of NF did not change the

	* tran.c (setfval): Normalize negative zero to positive zero.
	If setting NF, clear donerec and call setlastfld().
	(setsval): Remove call to save_old_OFS().  If setting OFS, call
	recbld(). If setting NF, clear donerec and call setlastfld().

	As part of the process, revert OFS-related changes of 2018-05-22:

	* awk.h (saveOFS, saveOFSlen, save_old_OFS): Remove declarations.
	* lib.c (recbld): Use *OFS instead of saveOFS.
	* run.c (saveOFS, saveOFSlen, save_old_OFS): Remove.

	bugs-fixed/decr-NF.ok: New files.

	* regdir/T.misc: Revise test to match fixed code.
	* run.c (format): Increase size of buffer used for %a test. (Unrelated
	to NF or OFS, but fixes a compiler complaint.)

	* regdir/beebe.tar: Fix longwrds.ok so that the test will pass.
