Firstly, I spot "Paul Roberts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>". How good it is to have someone from inside Sun taking an interest in heartbeat! (For a few years, I've been trying to maintain heartbeat portability to include Sun, so it's nice to have company...) Anyway, I haven't looked in depth at your problem. But it's worth bearing in mind that heartbeat sprang from a GNU/Linux environment and the vast majority of its real use in such environment. Now turning to my own Solaris build, I see that "configure" ends up finding my local GNU "flex", rather than the Sun "lex". (I would expect that: configure prefers GNU variants over the manufacturer's.) So I would guess that if I were to force my build to use "lex", it, too, would have the same problem as yours. I'm no "lex" expert at all. (Although, off-topic, it just so happens that I currently have open with Sun a Solaris-9/lex bug for which I'm expecting a T-patch any day now...please...) I guess that "telecom/recoverymgrd/conf_lex.l" contains a flex-ism; something that works in GNU/flex but not in manufacturer "lex". If you could investigate that, and try to provide a fix (that must, of course, continue to work in "flex") then I (or other developers here) would be happy to try to incorporate that into future releases.
