``Urk''.
Perhaps change:
cd ${.CURDIR}/usr.bin/lex && ${MAKE} bootstrap && ${MAKE} depend && \
${MAKE} ${MK_FLAGS} -DNOLIB all install ${CLEANDIR} ${OBJDIR}
To something like:
cd ${.CURDIR}/usr.bin/lex && ${MAKE} bootstrap && ${MAKE} depend && \
${MAKE} ${MK_FLAGS} -DNOLIB all install ${CLEANDIR}
.if !defined(NOOBJDIR)
cd ${.CURDIR}/usr.bin/lex && ${MAKE} obj
.endif
Or even:
cd ${.CURDIR}/usr.bin/lex && ${MAKE} bootstrap && ${MAKE} depend && \
${MAKE} ${MK_FLAGS} -DNOLIB all install clean cleandepend
One of those might do it. Otherwise, taking out the -DNOLIB makes lex
descend into it's library, which causes ld -O to be used, and ld hasn't
been built yet. (And, incidently, ld in binutils-2.8 uses lex during the
build :-] /home/src/contrib/binutils/ld/ldlex.l )
