           Summary: Review Request: antlr4 - parser generator tool

Description:

This is a package for ANTLR 4, the 4th version of the well-known parser
generator.

There are a few things that made this complicated:
1) The ANTLR 4.4 build depends on ANTLR 4.3, the last minor version, i.e., the
tool essentially requires itself to build from source
2) ANTLR 4 also requires ANTLR 3 to build, but the ANTLR 3 version currently in
the Fedora repositories is too old (3.5.2 is current, 3.4 in repository)

This package represents a "kludge" solution, I just put the two jars discussed
above in the source folder.  I'm open to feedback on alternative ways of
approaching the above problem.  However, given that the RPM can provide a
functional ANTLR 4 package to Fedora users, it seems maybe justifiable to do it
this way for at least version one?
