[pet] lex-exhaustive parsing

i have come around to the point of view that the two-phase setup to  
parsing (as bernd has advocated since the early 1990s :-) is superior,  
even though the LKB does not use that
approach.  so, from my pount of view, i see no reason to not always  
turn on lex-exhaustive.  however, i also feel there are many small  
variations and options in how to run PET, and we should elimunate  
legacy code wherever possible.  hence my preference would be to ditch  
the lex-exhaustive option completely, and all code that is used in one- 
phase parsing only.

best, oe
