Nothing terribly serious.  Slack9 comes with gcc 3.2.2 and an old version of
flex, so I had to install your recommended version in /usr/local.  And then I
had to add %option noyywrap to tokenizer.l.  But, I had tried a few other
things before I hit upon that solution :)

I *am* using a slightly newer version of KDE than Slack standard, however...
looking over the output from ldd I think that this build should run OK on
typical installs.

BTW, I searched high and low for a decent Linux UML editor before finding
Umbrello... I use it at work all the time now.  Please forward my compliments
to the developers!
