     Well, your problem is the
     
     switch (yybgin-yysvec-1) {      /* witchcraft */
     
     at the beginning of lex rules.  "witchcraft" == "non-portable".  It's
     assuming knowledge of the AT&T lex's internal variables.
     
     For flex, you can probably do the equivalent using a switch on YYSTATE.
