I understand, and it makes sense. Just be aware that the inverse of this rule is
also true --  %option nomain implies yywrap -- which makes much less sense.

Of course, I only complain because it had me on one heck of a bug hunt. I had
specified %option noyywrap and %option nomain, yet the linker complained that it
couldn't find yywrap. I thought I had broken something! :)
