Hi,
It seems that the flex has a bug. ( and it still hasn't been corrected
apparently as the version I run is 2.5.35)
The following is the solution suggested in the bison info.
/* Work around an incompatibility in flex (at least versions
2.5.31 through 2.5.33): it generates code that does
not conform to C89. See Debian bug 333231
<
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=333231>. */
# undef yywrap
# define yywrap() 1
But then why does this problem arise only when I use autotools. I never
faced this problem while I was
using a handmade Makefile?
Regards
