Ouch, you are absolutely right.  Somehow /dev/stdout got trashed (probably
a file I missed when I had my earlier disk corruption) and the
output of the following lex:
lex  -P_nsyy -o/dev/stdout /usr/src/lib/libc/net/nslexer.l | sed -e
'/YY_BUF_SIZE/s/16384/1024/' >nslexer.c

was creating /dev/stdout w/ the contents of the lex'd nslexer.l and a 0
byte nslexer.c

I just kicked off a make in lib/libc and it looks good so far so I'm going
to cancel it and try a make build again with fingers crossed.

Thanks for the help!!!
