      The things to fix are to add a couple of zeroes to:
      
      #define JAMSTATE -32766 /* marks a reference to the state that always jams */
      #define MAXIMUM_MNS 31999
      #define BAD_SUBSCRIPT -32767
      #define MAX_SHORT 32700
      
      and, if you get complaints about too many rules, make the following change too:
      
      	#define YY_TRAILING_MASK 0x200000
      	#define YY_TRAILING_HEAD_MASK 0x400000
