        I can confirm that compiling and installing 'lex' in advance produces a 
working 'lex' on 7.x. 

        My current understanding is that the procedure mentioned in a previous 
mail 
uses the 8.x source but the 7.x tools and headers, so 'lex' then runs 
correctly, since it also doesn't depend on exotic kernel features found only 
in 8.x.
