Debian's default flex 2.5.31 does not like the Pathfinder code; hence, we use our own flex 2.5.33 instead.

I haven't realized that we have a problem there, but your commit message seems suspicious to me: Your checkin only modifies conf.bash. That means, only development folks will be affected by your checkin. Users will not have your specialized flex version installed. If we indeed have problems with flex 2.5.31, I guess we'll either have to either (a) change our code such that it does compile with 2.5.31. I don't know what the problem was on Debian, so I have no clue if we could fix this. Or (b) we should check the flex version in ./configure and abort compilation in case the installed flex version is not sufficient to compile Pathfinder. Maybe you can enlighten me (maybe also others) what the actual flex problem was. I cannot find anything in the TestWeb.
