This patch is difficult to install on RedHat Linux, since RedHat
supplies flex and not lex; and flex doesn't convert dtimep.lex
correctly.  An attempt to apply flex to dtimep.lex causes make to 
do this:

        LEX FAILED: using pre-lexed dtimep.c
        cp ./dtimep.c-lexed dtimep.c

Does anyone know what the trouble with flex is?  And what's the purpose 
of lexedit.sed?
