    While I agree up to a point, the BNF for SystemVerilog 3.0 is a part of
    that standard,
    and does need to be voted on before changes can be made even if the changes
    are also necessary in the IEEE standard. What we have done is to make the
    obvious
    errata fixes in the SystemVerilog BNF, and anything controversial has been
    referred
    back to the IEEE ETF for the recommended fix.
