I'm unable to build slony on an RHEL 5.3 machine. 

Running configure complains that my version of flex/lex is 'too old'. Checking
the configure script, I see that it's trying match my flex version string
(2.5.4) against this: 

if echo "$pgac_flex_version" | sed 's/[.a-z]/ /g' | awk '{ if ($1 = 2 && $2 = 5
&& $3 >= 31) exit 0; else exit 1;}'

Configuration runs to completion despite the warning message. 

Then, during make/make all, I get the following errors: 

--------------------------------
