flex package misses FlexLexer.h and symbolic link flex++ to flex.exe

Hi

I tried compiling

 o yudit-1.5 - ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/apps/editors/X/

and make stopped when trying to access FlexLexer.h

Apparently this is missing from the cygwin flex package.

I downloaded

 o flex-2.5.4a - ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/non-gnu/flex/

it compiled OOTB.
A make -n install gives:

vzell:/gnu/src/flex-2.5.4> make -n install
/bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs \
  /usr/local/bin /usr/local/lib /usr/local/include /usr/local/man/man1
rm -f /usr/local/man/man1/flexdoc.1
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./flex.1 /usr/local/man/man1/flex.1
/usr/bin/install -c flex /usr/local/bin/flex
rm -f /usr/local/bin/flex++
cd /usr/local/bin && ln -s flex flex++
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 libfl.a /usr/local/lib/libfl.a
cd /usr/local/lib && ranlib libfl.a
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./FlexLexer.h /usr/local/include/FlexLexer.h


So the cygwin package is missing FlexLexer.h and a symbolic link flex++ to flex.exe.

By the way yudit (a Unicode editor) compiles OOTB.

Ciao
