Ok. It is not clear from the spec whether "decreasing precedence" is
between each bullet in the list or whether this is also within each
bulleted section. But from the BNF (and our parser), I'd take your
interpretation (e.g. "and" expressions are always grouped before "or"
is applied to groups). So then everything makes sense.
Beats me why the authors could not write it explicitly like this, but
anyways... http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/operators.html

This is the correct method. Generated by JavaCC, so it looks ugly like
that, still that's the one.
So +1 for the patch.
