I also see this on a Linux x86 system. My guess is that this may be related to the version of libtool. I have 1.5.2 installed. I've removed the "libtool --mode=XXX" stuff from the Makefile and this allowed the compile to proceed. I don't see a good reason for having the libtool calls in there anyway, so perhaps a patch to remove them would be a good idea.

This unfortunately depends on a newer (Gentoo-enhanced) version of flex than is provided on osx. (flex-2.5.4a-r5) Nothing we can do until Apple bumps the flex version, until pathspec is completed, or if the ttmkfdir maintainers decide they don't need -r5. Will ask about this.

This fails because of libtool, not flex.
It should use glibtool, not libtool

Try it in prefix.
