Ah, I've just seen this file.  I wouldn't try to parse that, but instead look 
to see if there is a source file from the Firebird lexical analyser.

Try
  grep -ir \"SELECT\" .
in the Firebird source tree to see if you can find anything.

The tokens in fbkeywords.y aren't necessarily the same as the tokens in the 
actual SQL dialect.  They're just like constants that refer to a string, and 
may be different to the strings to which they refer.

See the kexi/tools/sql_keywords directory for how we parse keywords from 
database sources.  I'll do the shell scripting if you like.
