There's something definitely weird about your setup.  It should look
like this here:

=======
===>  Configuring for flex-2.5.3
creating cache ./config.cache
checking whether ln -s works... yes
checking for bison... no
checking for byacc... byacc
checking for gcc... cc
checking whether we are using GNU C... yes
checking for ranlib... ranlib
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c -o bin -g bin
checking whether make sets $MAKE... yes
checking for working const... yes
=======

Note it doesn't do any directory listing.  (This is -current built
yesterday.)

Could it be that you have something in your PATH that configure is
picking up?  The script itself is run as "./configure" so there
shouldn't be any confusion there.
