Hmm, if you use -current I recommend you to be on current-users.  All
machine-independent quirks needed in the upgrade paths are announced
there, and they come every once in a while.  The flex problem, most
probably is that you need to copy initscan.c to scan.c the first time
round.  Visit www.netbsd.org and browse through the mail-archive on
current-users and you'll find better instructions, no doubt.  Some guy
announced, that he has upgrade instructions that he updates every week
or so, I don't remember his name though, but the message must've
passed by during July, I think.
