I do not use ANTLRWorks so my advice may be bogus....

Do not use the ANTLRWorks Interpreter -- it does not handle grammars
with predicates (and also apparently has other issues...)

Looks like the start symbol is translation_unit but that determination
is only after a very brief scan of the grammar (apparently, no rule
mentions EOF so it is kinda hard to tell...)

Hope this helps...
