OK, in that case I'll read the configure script instead
and see what you need to do..
for ac_prog in flex lex
do
# Extract the first word of "$ac_prog", so it can be a program name with args.
set dummy $ac_prog; ac_word=$2
{ $as_echo "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: checking for $ac_word" >&5
$as_echo_n "checking for $ac_word... " >&6; }
if ${ac_cv_prog_LEX+:} false; then :
$as_echo_n "(cached) " >&6
else
if test -n "$LEX"; then
ac_cv_prog_LEX="$LEX" # Let the user override the test.
else
<...>
so, it looks like setting ac_cv_prog_LEX should do the trick.
