See the constant FLEX_NEED_INTEGRAL_TYPE_DEFINITION for a workaround
for this problem.

You have not said on what platform you are trying to compile
flex. the flex build system tries to find the above 2 functions in
<sys/params.h> and in <netinet/in.h>. If that doesn't work for you,
consult your system documentation and let us know where they can be
found on your system and we'll see what we can do.

When you are reporting compilation problems, please report the system
on which you are compiling. Typically, this may include:

* Operating System
* Hardware Architecture
* Compiler
* C Library/Environment
