While running configure script:

Does failure of make has any relation with above

What setup needs to be done, in order to avoid getting 
these errors?

The problem appears to be rooted in your "flex"
installation.  There should always be a -lfl found by
configure if flex was installed correctly.

The error messages themselves indicate your version of flex
may be simply too old.  What do you get printed by invoking

	flex --version

?  And what kind of platform is "NSK" anyway?  I don't think
I've ever heard of it.
