Hi,

I've installed a new FreeBSD box with a 4.1.1-RELEASE CD I had lying
around. I've installed all the sources with the intent to CVSup them and
upgrade to -STABLE. CVSup completed with no errors (it finished just a
couple of hours ago), but when I try to do a "make buildworld" under
/usr/src, after a couple of screen fulls of info (ie., 10 seconds or
so), the build hangs at a "lex" command under "colldef" or something
(sorry, I'm not at the box; had to go in a hurry...). By hanging I mean
that nothing happened in over an hour of time and that the "lex" process
was consistently at 99% CPU usage. I noticed that lex tried to create a
file called "scan.c" somewhere under /usr/obj; that file remained at a
size of 49k.
I also tried to recompile just the lex binary by going to
/usr/src/usr.bin/lex (usr.sbin perhaps?), and make also hung at some lex
command.

Any suggestions, or is the current source broken? Do I need to install a
new lex binary, which I can get from a -STABLE box which I upgraded last
week?

Thanks,

Sven
