Keywords are handled generically by the lexer to make extending it with
new keywords easier. In the flex file (aspectj.flex), the interesting
location is in lines 677 -- 720.

To answer your particular question, "aspect" is registered as a keyword
in src/abc/main/AbcExtension.java on line 404.

Hope this helps,
