There is best way - update flex in base system, and resolve any conflicts.
BTW, it should be painless operation - base system already have flex 2.5.4,
and any troubles betweet system and port flex is some function redefine, and
bunch of new table functions (system lib doens't work with port's include and
vice versa).
I don't have much experience with this kind of work, but will try to make
patch in a day-two..
Second way is manual set path to ports flex ( as ports/115912 suggest) in any
port, which want to use extended flex/yy functions (and only God know number
of such ports).
