Luca -

You might want to be aware that it appears that the dmd2 front end uses 
Pratt parsing rather than being based on EBNF.  That being the case, it 
might be much easier (not to say more useful) to specify the language 
semantics in a more compatible format than EBNF.  If you've had sophmore 
level CS theory, then Pratt's original paper is very readable, and highly 
recommended.

Best,
Jason
