This has been fixed by adding a check for the lookahead token also for the fallback alternative. The fix has been added to both the Java and C# parsers.

The unexpected token error messages may be misleading in some cases. When a production has a fallback alternative, it will always be selected whether or not it matches the current token or not. This will result in a unexpected token error (which is correct) but with only the expected tokens from the fallback alternative listed (which is incorrect).

This can be easily rectified by checking the next tokens also for the fallback alternative. This error is present in both the Java and C# parsers.
