- I've been trying to build x11r5 on our RS/6000 running AIX 3.2 but I seem
- to keep having problems with lex. There are three places in which the
- Makefiles call lex and each time it runs lex I get the same message:
- Invalid character in file, and the line number it gives as a reference is
- always the last line in the file. So I tried getting the bsd version of
- lex from ftp.uu.net, and that compiled fine, and now I don't get that error
- anymore. Now there are two problems: one is the the BSD lex doesn't have
- the function yylineno, and when it creates the file yy.lex.c the compiler
- seems to have problems with: yyfunc {return (1);}
- Has anybody else had similar problems when building X11R5?
- Thanks for any assistance.
