RE: unicode patched flex crashes on win32

[Mark Weaver]

I zipped what I'd got up and stuck it here:

http://www.blushingpenguin.com/mark/flex/flex-unicode-reentrant-2.5.4.zip

including a win32 binary.  I dunno quite what state that's in, it's the
version I use for development with VC, so has been hacked about wrt to
header files, re-entrancy, parameters, and error mesage output format OTOMH,
but it seems to spit out (rather large) utf-16 scanners.

Ta,

Mark
