Newer versions of goyacc try to optimize the representation of certain things. If using the latest goyacc, one of the generated files will be updated to use thinner ints which breaks the build like so:

diff --git a/internal/lvgen/y.go b/internal/lvgen/y.go

For now, I've installed goyacc@c6776771dde7a49828feb54fd8be11695a32b558 for local development.

goyacc seems to perform this optimization since commit 59f1f2c5a8fd844a6cc55e9a773a7003bd8e5480.

edit: the following components could be addressed:

• goyacc
• go/go-get/go-install (the CI seems to be pinned to 1.16.2 and uses go-get, as does ./scripts/gen-consts.sh; go-get is deprecated in Go 1.17)
