The $ variables are expanded to something else in the output parser.  
So one way is to look what Bison writes in the parser actions (in  
the .c or the .cc file) and debug that. Bison also has a debug  
feature, but I recall it just writes what is on the parser stack. And  
Satya is working on improved debugging - I am not sure of its current  
state.
