I've looked at this patch and I'm not sure I understand what's  
happening or think that it's a bug now.    If PLY is running in  
optimize mode, it is always going to read data from a lextab.py  
file.   If that file already exists and is readable, then the code  
never reaches a point where any attempt would be made to overwrite  
it.     There are only two situations where PLY is going to try and  
recreate the lextab.py file on every run:

1.  PLY can't find the lextab.py file because it's installed in the  
wrong location.
2.  The lextab.py file has a version mismatch--being created by an  
older version of PLY.

I think I'm going to need  more information from you about your setup  
to know why you're seeing this behavior.  For example, what version of  
Python?  What options to lex() and yacc()?  Where are files being  
placed?
