True, Hack's parser is ocaml based and unrecognizable to the majority of this 
list.  But HHVM's parser (which implements the runtime side of Hack), is a 
flex/bison parser, not just similar to, but actually directly descended from 
PHP 5.2's parser.  Sure things have diverged since then, but the overall rule 
structure is nearly identical in spirit.  Borrowing concepts should be trivial.
