The fix is to match lex and /usr/lib/lex.  IBM's lex has a bug that
prevents the andrew toolkit from working properly.  I installed my
version of lex, but didn't install a matching /usr/lib/lex.  The lex
I installed is the Athena version plus some patches I sent in a few
releases ago.  Demi:/usr/lib/lex is the correct version.
