I might be wrong, but I think that is saying that bison will no
longer add a semicolon at the end of the C code for an action.
If you do this:

diff --git a/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_gram.y b/src/pl/plpgsql/src/pl_gram.y
index 5009e59a78f..238c8ca80f1 100644

                }

                {
-                   $$ = pstrdup($1);
+                   $$ = pstrdup($1)
                }
+    ;

 opt_semi       :
                | ';'

it doesn't compile.  I don't have a pre-3.0 bison to compare to
though.
