Arrghh.

Looks like we will abandon flex sooner than planned. Oh well. It was
coming anyway. Fortunately the language is now stable enough that doing
so is no longer completely insane. I was simply hoping not to do it
twice.

James: I'm actually thinking here that we need to look forward rather
than backward, and since there isn't commonality of function across the
releases at the moment it may make sense to stick a stable version of
flex into the Coyotos cross tools. Opinion?
