I created another patch and updated the previous
two with the following fixes:
 - Disabled an example of the EBNF notation
 in introduction to prevent name clashes
 and inclusion into the generated grammar file.
 - yield can be a bare statement in 2.5.
 - Reintroduced "name" in import statements,
 so that explanation can stay the same.
 - Reformated __future__ import statement,
 but left the latex syntax broken so that
 it still won't be included into grammar.txt.
 - Fixed a paragraph about valid __future__
 features.
The new patch is more of an example how hard it
would be to synchronise the names. It is more
or less consistent with the Grammar file, but as
a consequence is completely out of sync with the
surrounding text.
While I would like to see less differences betwen
Grammar and Reference manual, I don't think it is
that easy, since someone would also have to check
the rest of the text and fix all incorrect
references.
I would guess that the same holds for changing
the Grammar file; you would simply have to change
too much code.
I think that the simplest solution is to add the
table from my previous comment to the PEP 306.
