It's ok, you make an excellent use of them. But later in the development 
process I will need a hand with "Parser::isBasicType", 
"Parser::parseBasicType" and "Parser::parseDeclDefs(bool)". Just take a 
look at this:

---
int Parser::isBasicType(Token **pt)
{
     // This code parallels parseBasicType()
     Token *t = *pt;
     Token *t2;
     int parens;

     switch (t->value)
     {
	CASE_BASIC_TYPES:
	    t = peek(t);
	    break;

	case TOKidentifier:
	    t = peek(t);
	    if (t->value == TOKnot)
	    {
		goto L4;
	    }
	    goto L3;
	    while (1)
	    {
	L2:
		t = peek(t);
	L3:
		if (t->value == TOKdot)
		{
	Ldot:
		    t = peek(t);
		    if (t->value != TOKidentifier)
			goto Lfalse;
		    t = peek(t);
		    if (t->value != TOKnot)
			goto L3;
	L4:
		    t = peek(t);
		    if (t->value != TOKlparen)
			goto Lfalse;
		    if (!skipParens(t, &t))
			goto Lfalse;
		}
		else
		    break;
	    }
	    break;

	case TOKdot:
	    goto Ldot;

	case TOKtypeof:
	    /* typeof(exp).identifier...
	     */
	    t = peek(t);
	    if (t->value != TOKlparen)
		goto Lfalse;
	    if (!skipParens(t, &t))
		goto Lfalse;
	    goto L2;

	default:
	    goto Lfalse;
     }
     *pt = t;
     return TRUE;

Lfalse:
     return FALSE;
}

I was thinking of sending a feature request to Java just for this tiny 
function :-P
