I have written such a grammar based on a pre-existing ANSI C grammar,
and Apple's documented grammar for Objective-C.
Feel free to use/modify/redistribute this grammar:
http://spiny.com/software/objc.g
It requires DParser, which you can get here:
http://dparser.sourceforge.net/
I found working with DParser a lot easier than lex/yacc, since you
don't have to clumsily fumble around with ambiguities all the time.
Also note that my grammar does not handle C99 extensions, or
Objective-C++. C99 support would be relatively easy to add, but
Objective-C++ is considerably trickier.

Unfortunately, that doesn't really answer the question. You see, I
want to write a lex/yacc file to parse in modern Objective-C code;
that means that I REALLY need to learn what the modern grammar for
Objective C is.
Thanks,

The subject line pretty much says it all; is Objective-C now a
strict superset of C99? I'd like to use some of the newer C99
keywords and know that my code is portable, but all I see is that
its built on K&R C.
In xcode their is a build setting per target for the following
dialects:
C89: Accept ISO C90, but not GNU extensions. [-std=c89]
GNU89: Accept ISO C90 and GNU extensions. [-std=gnu89]
C99: Accept ISO C99, but not GNU extensions. [-std=c99]
GNU99: Accept ISO C99 and GNU extensions. [-std=gnu99]
