If not locked or noFOLLOW set, compute FOLLOW of a rule.

TJP says 8/12/99: not true anymore: Lexical rules never compute follow. They set epsilon and the code generator gens code to check for any character. The code generator must remove the tokens used to predict any previous alts in the same block.

When the last node of a rule is reached and noFOLLOW, it implies that a "local" FOLLOW will be computed after this call. I.e.,

a : b A;
b : B | ;
c : b C;
Here, when computing the look of rule b from rule a, we want only {B,EPSILON_TYPE} so that look(b A) will be {B,A} not {B,A,C}.

if the end block is not locked and the FOLLOW is wanted, the algorithm must compute the lookahead of what follows references to this rule. If end block is locked, FOLLOW will return an empty set with a cycle to the rule associated with this end block.

When computing ruleref lookahead, we don't want the FOLLOW computation done if an empty path exists for the rule.

In other words, we use context information to reduce the complexity of the analysis and strengthen the parser. The noFOLLOW flag is used as a means of restricting the FOLLOW to a "local" FOLLOW. This variable is orthogonal to the lock variable that prevents infinite recursion. noFOLLOW does not care about what k is.
