For every LR(k) grammar there is an LR(1) grammar parsing the same
language [1], but this result does not say what happens with the grammar
rule actions.

A GLR parser splits the parses in face of an ambiguity, which might be
used instead. Bison supports this, but currently the actions during a
parse split are not executed, and so cannot set context variables for
the lexer, until the merge.

Some other results from [1]:

Every LL(k) grammar is LR(k); not all LR(k) grammars are LL(k). If one
knows a grammar is LR(k) for some k, then there it is decidable whether
it is LL(k') for some k'.
