building iasl gives yytext_ptr undeclared (acpiaca-unix-20050309)

[Sanjoy Mahajan]

In building compiler/iasl from ACPI CA (acpica-unix-20050309.tar.gz), I
get the yytext_ptr undeclared error:

cc -Wall -O2 -Wstrict-prototypes -D_LINUX -D_ACPI_ASL_COMPILER -I../include    -c -o aslcompilerlex.o aslcompilerlex.c
aslcompiler.l: In function `comment':
aslcompiler.l:847: error: `yytext_ptr' undeclared (first use in this function)

Commenting out the '#undef yytext_ptr' in the generated aslcompilerlex.c
allowed me to compile iasl (and it worked fine).  Here's the diff:

--- aslcompilerlex.c	2005-03-16 15:14:43.000000000 -0500

Hi,

use the flex-old package.
