Ah!  You have Matthias' emergency release, which had an old 
version.c.  When I built the rpms, I uploaded them and the .tar.gz file.  I 
guess I erred in not changing to 0.14.3.1.

Here's the official md5sum:

Yes.  It displays lines being read, functions called from the rules, and 
tokens returned.  When built with flex-2.5.4 and flex-2.5.31 and then run, 
the outputs show different ordering of data reading and functions called.

File test.flex.tgz is attached.  Script tst assumes that the two versions 
of flex are available as flex-254 and flex-2532.  Running "tst 1" will 
build the program with both flex version, run it with saved output, and 
diff the outputs.

A more complex lexer and test case are needed to illustrate _why_ the order 
difference causes trouble.  The trouble I initially noticed was than 
"Return-path:" header lines weren't generating special "rtrn:xxx" 
tokens.  The reason was that the msg_header flag was in "body" state, when 
it should have been "header" state.  The reason for _that_ was the 
different order of operations (reading and parsing) described above.  If 
needed, I can put together a fuller parser and test program to show these 
effects.
