[Flex-help] Three Tests Fail: test-c++-multiple-scanners, test-pthread, & test-alloc-extra

[Micah H. <mic...@gm...>]

I'm having some problems getting three of the tests to pass for flex-2.5.34.
I'm compiling on a 64-bit architecture, so my CFLAGS are simple "-m64".

Output for test-c++-multiple-scanners:

scanner-1.l:1: bad character: /
scanner-1.l:1: unknown error processing section 1
...
scanner-1.l:1: bad character: .
scanner-1.l:2: bad character: /
...
scanner-1.l:3: bad character: /
scanner-1.l:3: unknown error processing section 1
...
make[5]: *** [scanner-1.cpp] Error1

There are "bad characters" and "unknown errors" all the way through line 20.

Output for test-pthread:

scanner.l:55: bad character: /
scanner.l:55: bad character: *
scanner.l:55: unknown error processing section 1
...
scanner.l:55: bad character: .
scanner.l:55: bad character: *
scanner.l:55: bad character: /
make[5]: *** [scanner.c] Error 1

Output for test-alloc-extra:

gcc -m64 -c -o scanner.o -I. -I../.. -I../.. -g -O2 scanner.c
scanner.l:47: error: conflicting types for 'testalloc'
scanner.c:303: error: previous declaration of 'testalloc' was here
scanner.l:94: error: conflicting types for 'testalloc'
scanner.c:303: error: previous declaration of 'testalloc' was here
make[5]: *** [scanner.o] Error 1

I'm not sure where to go from here...  This is preventing UnixODBC from
compiling.  Thanks for any help,
