The fragment you posted is not enough. Try removing as much as you can
from the grammar while still keeping the reduce/reduce message. If it's
not obvious at that point, you might try posting the smaller grammar here.

I would recommmend that you study up on LR parsing. The "dragon book" by Aho
and Ullman is an old favorite.


    Good luck,
